Ahead of the sleepless night that I can't atone I feel your warmth in my shivering back The feeling that I can surely believe in is like wings Under the sky of sorrow, I found you standing proudly Those eyes, your shadow, even the tears you shed I'll pledge to protect them, let's go together to the eternity Here, leave everything to me, I'll embrace everything Because it's two of us, there's a path we can keep going For you, I will live only for you I feel the miracle without turning around No one can do the same (can't stop) The limit is a thing of the past, Absolute Soul More My Soul.This is Sir Ed Davey's first conference speech as leader and likely his last before the general election.
