Only Lovers Decide - Mary Hopkin

Brave young soldier of fortune

Fair young maiden in white

Sharing rose-colored glasses

Counting stars in the night

Blessed union of spirit

Silver threads intertwine

Fabric so gently woven

Fashioned veil of sunshine

If you ask will true love abide

I’ll reply some live, some die

Only lovers decide

The Earth turns in many ways

So some may sleep while some may wake

Treasured moments of sweetness

Far more precious than gold

Loving arms warm embraces

Shielding you from the cold

If you ask will true love abide

I reply some live, some die

Only lovers decide
