Some chords:
Time takes
care of the wound
so I can be
lieve
You had
so much to give, you
thought I couldn't
see
Gifts for
boot heels to crush,
promises de
ceived
I had to send it
away to
bring us back again
Your eyes and
body brighten,
silent waters,
deep
Your precious
daughter in the
other room a
sleep
A kiss good
night from every
stranger that I
meet
I had to send it
away to
bring us back again
Morning
theft, un
pretender
left, un
grateful
True self is what
brought you here to me
A
place where we can
accept this love
Friendship battered down by
useless history
Un
examined
failure
But what am I
still to
you?
Some thief who
stole from
you?
Or, some fool
drama queen whose
chances were few?
Love brings us to
who we
need,
a place where
we can
save
A heart that
beats as both
siphon and reservoir
You're a woman,
I'm a
calf,
you're a window,
I'm a
knife
We come to
gether making
chance into starlight
Meet me to
morrow night
...
... or any
day you want
...
...
I have no right to
wonder just
how, or when
You know the
meaning fits
... there's
no
relief in this
...
...
I miss my
beautiful
friend
I had to send it
away to
bring her back again
