I felt the shards glisten inside of me And it was winter witheringly As I watched the tide recede With everything that I believe In and as heretofore Why is it that the ones we adore Are the ones who punish us In lines we cross and broken trust They try to reign me in But it’s like a corset and I cannot win Then I happened upon him After our meeting on the sly Far past the place where we both die By a strike on our homes And we are both alone In the darkness and the grass Moonlight that doesn’t seem to pass Into the sun And he is the one That I know But he doesn’t like me so I let it go And shut him out of my sky But we both know it is a lie Because he is all of my stars I see them through my prison bars And the walls may be bricks and mortar And if I had a quarter For every time you said you’d be there I could have found someone who’d really care But anyway Leave that with the hay They raked in the summer weather And the heather May induce sleep But you’re a promise I want to keep Deep within my heart and soul So let the waves roll And crash upon grains of sand You will forever hold my hand In my heart of hearts It’s in the end the beginning starts
