We have been so close together
Each a candle each a flame
All the dangers were outside us
And we knew them all by name

Now see how the bramble and the rose
Intertwine
Now love grows like the bramble and the rose
Often cruel often kind

Now I’ve hurt you and it hurts me
Just to see what we can do
To ourselves and to each other
Without really meaning to

Now see how the bramble and the rose
Intertwine
Now love grows like the bramble and the rose
Round each other they will wind

So put your arms around me
Yes and sing a true love song
One that we can sing together
One to last the whole night long
