And there's no one to save you
Will you go to our favorite place

When the sun runs out
When everything has come to an end
And there's no one to save you
When you're helpless and alone
Will you go to our favorite place
Will you try to hold onto the memory of something special
And try to say goodbye
And try to accept that it's really over
At the end of (At the end of) The world
At the very end, when everything is over
Will you find me
Will you be there with me
So that we can go together
So that we can face it all together
When the moon breaks up
When the familiar starts to fall apart
And the tide goes out of control
And everything becomes chaotic
Will you find me in the water
Will you still be there with me, even in difficult circumstances
And swim me to the stars
And help me reach for something beyond this world
Together
We'll face it all together
Together
We'll hold onto each other
Together
We'll comfort each other
Together
We'll make it through together
Together
We won't face it alone
Together
We'll be there for each other
Together
Together we'll find a way
When the sun breaks up
When everything is changed forever
And there's no one to save you
And when you're at your most vulnerable
Will you find me
Will you still be there with me
Will you find me
Will you hold onto me
Will you find me
Will you never let me go

When I married my husband there was a part in my vows that said "I'll keep you in our shed if you ever turn into a zombie." & our first dance was to "The Way I Am". So I absolutely adore this song and the fact Ingrid wrote this after watching way too many Zombie movies.

A strikingly beautiful woman...An amazingly beautiful musician, poet, and storyteller. I have all her albums, and Ingrid is as completely stunning as her music in every sense.
