She breathed a song into the air,
Left her only heart in my care Don’t know how I had let it slip But that is where our ship did sink. It wasn’t one of those rainy days, The sun was hot, the sky ablaze And I couldn’t bear to meet her eye, In that month all had gone awry. Sorry that I suddenly left, I had thought we had nothing left. I was overwhelmed and really scared Then went so numb I couldn’t have cared. I hated what I loved the most and closed myself to hurt no more. Today I can write you this song, Is proof that I have come along. It still pains as it pained back then, I still cry like I cried back then But slowly I’ve been moving on, Whatever happened is long gone. You breathed a song into the air, Our hearts are in each other’s care, Nevermore will we let them slip, This ship of ours we won’t let sink. |
