lyrics

We used to be so close
We had no need to touch each other
We used to use our eyes and never say a word
We used to give each other
Everything that we needed
We used to use our eyes and never say a word
Thought love would last forever
I thought we'd be together
I never thought I'd have to say

I'd rather die in the wilderness than to have you back again
I'd rather die in an empty room than to see your face again
I used to laugh at your sweet caress now it only brings me pain
I'd rather die in the wilderness
I'd rather die in the burning rain, the burning rain
In the wilderness, the burning rain

We used to be so strong, we fought the world together
We stood there side by side against an angry world
We used to give each other everything that we needed
We used to use our eyes and never say a word
Thought love would last forever
I thought we'd be together
I never thought I'd have to say

I'd rather die in the wilderness than to have you back again
I'd rather die in an empty room than to see your face again
I used to laugh at your sweet caress now it only brings me pain
I'd rather die in the wilderness
I'd rather die in the burning rain, the burning rain
In the wilderness, the burning rain
