Nothing on this earth, or in the heaven above
Could ever match the bliss of being in love
Your smile and your laughter are sweet as hell
I swear you're more beautiful than the angels themselves
You and me baby, we'll dance and drink wine
Let's keep on dancing straight through the end of time
A toast to you and me and our little paradise
Here's to you darling, and the heaven in your eyes
I promise I'll never leave you. Just trust me sweetheart
The end of the world could never tear us apart
Funny story. Last night, all the stars fell on my carpet
Never was the kind of person who enjoyed the sound of trumpets
I watched all my friends disappear before my eye
I saw four dark figures in the burning crimson sky
I watched my whole town shatter, saw the clouds turn into sand
I just stood there with my sin and I held it in my hand
He told me to come with Him and He'd save me from the serpents
I told Him that I loved Him, but it just wasn't worth it
Because nothing on this earth, or in the heaven above
Could ever match the bliss of being in love
I know how it goes with broken glass and debris
Don't cry. It's alright. Just close your eyes and kiss me
It's you and me babe. They can't bring us to our knees
Get in the car, it's time to go. We're heading towards the east
We'll hide in New York City, and we'll get there fast
Just think happy thoughts and reminisce about the past
Lean your head against the window and lose yourself in dreams
We'll dance and drink wine atop the flames of burning wings
Let's lie down together underneath the town's dust
I'll hold you tight as buildings fall all around us
Follow me love, and avoid the fiery staircase
I'll go through hell just to see your face
Take a deep breath. It's almost over
Take a deep breath and hold me closer
I love you my girl, and I need you to trust me,
To look in my eyes and tell me you love me
I won't let them take you. I'll fight for you here
I won't let you down. I'll die for you dear
I made you a promise, and I intend to come through
The end of the world can't keep me from you
Using Calgary as a backdrop the author satirizes the self-serving nature of the public as it continues to fatten itself, not only physically, but egotistically as well.
