I think this is one of the most beautiful songs i've ever heard

It's Only Time - The Magnetic Fields

Why would I stop loving you
a hundred years from now?
It's only time.
It's only time.

What could stop this beating heart
once it's made a vow?
It's only time.
It's only time.

If rain won't change your mind,
let it fall.
The rain won't change my heart
at all.

Lock this chain
around my hand,
throw away the key.
It's only time.
It's only time.

Years falling
like grains of sand
mean nothing to me.
It's only time.
It's only time.

If snow won't change your mind
let it fall.
The snow won't change my heart,
not at all.

(I'll walk your lands)
I'll walk your lands
(And swim your sea)
And swim your sea

Marry me.
Marry me.

(Then in your hands)
Then in your hands
(I will be free)
I will be free

Marry me.
Marry me.

Why would I stop loving you
a hundred years from now?

I completely agree with you on the song. Stephen Merritt has been one of my favorite song writers for years. And about four years ago I officiated a wedding for two of my best friends and this was one of the wedding songs. I'm so glad that you put this up.

Make sure you also check out "The Book of Love" and "With Whom to Dance" from the Magnetic Fields. They are both similarly quirky and beautiful. Then listen to everything else. And then watch the movie "Pieces of April" since the whole soundtrack is Magnetic Fields and it is the best (only worthwhile?) thing Katie Holmes did in her career.
