I love this song, but the lyrics on most sites, including this one, are horribly presented and have errors.
I think the lyrics look more like this:
The day the world hard stopped turning
And the dawn, she breaks to embers
At night the ocean cries a love song
And her voice calls the tidal wave
So when the world stops, when the world's gone,
Who will be there to love you blindly?
And when the sun stops, when the sun's gone,
I will be there to light your way back
The day the sun burnt out completely
And the sky, it turns to ash and dust
And memory casts the only shadow
In the dark, in the dark we shine
Yesterday's here, then it slips away
Ooh, together we fade, fade away
So when the world stops, when the world's gone,
Who will be there to love you blindly?
And when the sun stops, when the sun's gone,
I will be there to light your way back
Ooh, yesterday's here, then it slips away
And our love now fades, fades away
So when the world stops, when the world's gone,
Who will be there to hold you tightly?
And when the sun stops, when the sun's gone,
I will be there to light your way back
