strangers and neighbors in wonder
we are all alike
captivated and exiled under
the same stars tonight

we made peace when we were younger
before we learned to fight
every grain of sand is numbered
in the first light

we’re made for each other
in the image of love
you and me - made for each other
in the image of love

can you feel my pain anymore? it seems
we’re losing touch
we bleed the same blood; you’re not foreign to me
if we’re brave enough

my lungs came without a warranty
they’re made of feeble stuff
from interstate to quarantine
from dust to dust

we’re made for each other
made in the image of love
you and me - made for each other
the image of love

so kiss me like an enemy
and bruise me like a friend
on the other side - remember me
we live - we die - we live again

so fearfully
and so wonderfully
we are designed for this
to carry each other
through such a place in time as this

so kiss me like an enemy
and bruise me like a friend
and in paradise - remember me
in spite of all my sin
