Primitive Lyrics - Diva - Annie Lennox

Sweetheart, the sun has set 

All red and primitive above our heads 

Blood stained on an ageless sky 

Wipe your tears and let the salt stains dry 

Let them all run dry 

All run dry 

Sweetheart, take me to bed 

That's where all our prayers are said 

Whispered silent in the night 

That's how all our dreams take flight 

Let them all go by 

All go by 

For time will catch us in both hands 

To blow away like grains of sand 

Ashes to ashes rust to dust 

This is what becomes of us 

Sweetheart, send me to sleep 

Pray to God our hopes to keep 

Take fears and make us strong 

Lead us to where we belong 

And let it all go by 

All go by
