Years keep dripping away, I notice the little things,
|
Moments in a mirror, holding the paper farther.
|
Moving slower and feeling colder,
|
Scared to trust my heart to another.
|
|
But I realized in the bottom of my well, that I was nowhere: safe but still in hell.
|
I had to pick myself up and believe that I would love again.
|
Yes, I will love again.
|
|
And I'll love you for life, heart of my cry, darling of mine.
|
And I'll walk through this fire, lay down my life, my violet eyes.
|
|
Oh Universe, oh Godly place, delivered you in a Christmas cake.
|
Sweaters and cheddars and knowing your mother,
|
Poems, and lamas, and children among us,
|
Valentines, and showing spine,
|
Going after what was mine
|
So divine, those kisses on our first night,
|
|
And patience and wisdom pulling us to each-other, blessings in finding our life together,
|
I'm picking myself up and believing that I will love again.
|
Yes I do love again.
|
|
And I'll love you for life, heart of my cry, darling of mine.
|
And I'll walk through this fire, lay down my life, my violet eyes.
|
|
A notarized paper will never together make our unity.
|
The wreckage of marriage, the bloody damned baggage between you and me,
|
Won't tarnish this silent of sacred decrees,
|
That I will, I will be
|
Yours eternally.
|
|
And I'll love you for life, heart of my cry, darling of mine.
|
And I'll walk through this fire, lay down my life, my violet eyes,
|
Violet eyes, violet eyes.
