Mosaic Songtext
von Morning Brigade

Everything you knew you thought you would know forever
Like every second past was a task that would last forever
But you admit to yourself you were unprepared
For the wrinkles in her hands and the tangles in her hair
Now everything you know is lost forever

You were lost in a thought that I thought you would never conceive
Memories as old as the knots in your granddaddy′s sleeves
But you admit to yourself you could not recognize
The power of her smile and the fire in her eyes
The water has risen up to your knees


The figure in the frame of the doorway calls his name
They share stories of the past as his vast eyes gaze on her face
He can see the shadows of the creases as he pieces together their fate
And they stare at the time as they climb into bed now it's late

And he asks

Do you know where I am
Could you stand where I stand
Is there nothing that you would change
′Cause there's a mosaic on the wall
Made from the pieces of us all
And I hope there is nothing that you would trade

Everything she knew she thought she would know forever
But she's just happy to spend her life with him forever
