[Verse 1]
It was red and we danced
At the pulpit where you stand
I'm far too gone by now
And the light that I saw
That was it
Nothing more
And all these games
[Chorus]
Life goes on behind, beyond the pines
[Verse 2]
Through the haze of the whispers
Past the shades
We were distant
And I spoke
[Chorus]
Life goes on behind, beyond the pines
Silence grows beside, beyond the pines
