Hmm hmm hmm
Hmm hmm
Hmm hmm
Hmm hmm

Depth over distance every time, my dear
And this tree of ours may grow tall in the woods
But it's the roots that will bind us here
To the ground hmm
 
Depth over distance was all I asked of you
And I may be foolish to fall as I do
Still there's strength in the blindness you fear
If you're coming too, hmm
If you're coming too, hmm

Hold on, wait until that lone sun
Breaks from the arms of the Lord hmm
Hold on, though we may be too young
To know this ride we're on hmm

Depth over distance was all I asked of you
And everybody round here's acting like a stone
Still there's things I'd do, darling, I'd go blind for you
If you let grow sometimes, let it grow sometimes, let it grow
Just let it grow sometimes

'Cause so hold on, wait until that lone sun
Breaks from the arms of the Lord, hmm
Oh hold on, though we may be too young
To know this ride we're on, hmm
Oh hold on, though we may be too young
To know this ride we're on (hmm hmm)

Oh depth over distance every time, my dear
And I may be foolish to fall as I do
Still there's strength in the blindness you fear
If you're coming too da-ah
Oh, if you're coming too hmm

So hold on, wait until that lone sun
Breaks from the arms of the Lord, hmm ah
Hold on, though we may be too young
To know this ride we're on
To know this ride
To know this ride we're on (Hmm hmm hmm)

Hmm hmm hmm
Hmm hmm hmm
Hmm hmm hmm
