(2014)
Forever seems like so long until I think of all the times spent waiting
If I was once the tallest mountain your love was the wind that eroded me to nothing
I wish you had told me that on the good days kissing you would make me think that I knew what happiness was and on the bad days
To put it simply each beat of your heart is a gift that I receive with the anticipation of a child at christmas
I awoke from a deep sleep and knew the reason was to write I love you
I get my silence in five minute doses before the plane overhead brings me back to earth
I spend my nights wishing on every star in the sky that you are alive and well
I see no joyous rebirth in spring for autumn will bring another death I see no joyous rebirth
I awoke in the dark next to you and more alone than ever I was amazed to hear your heart beating from
So much time passes without feeling a single thing that I think I would give anything
Everyday I lived out a song written just for you But you could
I thought I could drink you away but I had to stop being so drunk on you first
I grew up in a house built in 1937 long before codes and regulations and sometimes
I have whispered your name into the air so many times it has become the breeze that blows
I write sharp words with a sharper knife on page after page of what might as well be the skin of my back
