We've seen a lifetime since we met
|
Through good and bad
|
And things we won't forget
|
Forgotten promises and broken vows
|
But we always made it through somehow
|
But the key to you is broken in the lock
|
And a simple band of gold is all we've got
|
|
It's in the things that I can't say
|
That tear us both apart
|
But if you keep listening
|
You'll hear inside my heart of hearts
|
|
Darling, the simple things are hard to say
|
And darling the words get in the way
|
The poet sees the world through rhymes
|
But only says so much
|
See darling, the words are in my touch
|
the meaning's in my touch
|
|
And maybe there's something I should say
|
To make everything that's wrong Ok
|
A simple phrase, a sonnet from a play
|
But a man can only say so much these days
|
And we're drifting to the deep end of the lake
|
Trying to make good on our past mistakes
|
|
And I know you're tired
|
But heaven's here and now
|
I've got no explanation
|
Words are worthless to me now
|
|
Darling... etc
