Jens Lekman - Into Eternity lyrics

If I had to choose a moment in time

To take with me into eternity

I would choose this,

This moment with you in my arms

I know we've lost the final battle

I know we are prisoners,

I can hear chains rattle

But I'm a prisoner of this moment with you in my arms

You in my arms

I have a love

I have a love for this world,

A kind of love that will break my heart

A kind of love that reconstructs and remodels the past

That adds a dryness to the dry August grass

That adds the sunshine to the magnifying glass

And makes me fight for something that just can't last

You in my arms

If I had to choose a moment in time

To take with me into eternity

I'd choose this moment with you in my arms

You in my arms
