Final Curtain

When the last rock crumbles,
And the sun sinks in the sea,
The last chain is broken,
And everyone is free,
When all is said and done,
And now is used to be,
When it's final curtain call,
No ones left at all,
There'll still be you and me.

Reign

Only love can bring the rain,
That makes you yearn to the sky,
Only love can bring the rain,
That falls like tears from on high,
Love, reign o'er me
