and in the morning
|
after years have passsed
|
it seems
|
even now to overwhelm me
|
|
and in the stillness
|
after life has passed
|
it seems
|
even now to grow like cancer
|
|
and in the fallout
|
after war days have passed
|
it seems
|
even now to keep from dying
|
|
and there you are, folding deep into and through me
|
and there you are, keeping distant all who knew me
|
filling me with a new kind of life
|
|
|
but it's one i never wanted, one i never imagined
|
and even now, you send me reeling
|
for you and i have been together much too long
|
and though i drink my mind will not grow numb
|
'cause it's one i never wanted, one i never imagined
|
even now, you know it sends me reeling
|
for you and i have been together much to long
|
much too long, don't you know
|
so here we are, and here it goes again
|
i know i've waited much too long
|
i have weighed it all, delayed the fall
|
but even so, even now . . . . . . . . . . .
