Those who meet you,
Their heartbeats now bigger.
You are so unaware
The
Gardens and orchards
That grow in your wake
Over time,
After you have passed through
My friend.
Unassuming.
So beautiful, you.
Those who meet you,
Their heartbeats now bigger.
You are so unaware
The
Gardens and orchards
That grow in your wake
Over time,
After you have passed through
My friend.
Unassuming.
So beautiful, you.
Oh my friend
All our lives
(Since i can remember)
Your heart has ached
And try as i might
(in this life that we have known)
I cannot carry the weight
For you
(I realize this as we grow old)
Though I tried when we were young
(Helplessly)
I keep
hope.
I am here
(In the silence, through the tears)
And here i will stay
By your side
(Through the years)
The boat is easing up to the dock.
My friend you have returned
And tears fill my eyes.
Alas the reflection of the summer sun
Upon the water stings my eyes
As I frantically search for you.
My heartstrings play your name as my feet
Carry me to you.
Arms and legs no longer heavy.
Heartbeats fall into sync.
Our smiles speak of perfect happiness.
Bliss unspoken.
And there upon the dock we are home.
This incredible sadness
Pretends to play nice
With my endless madness.
It heaves in my heart
Swearing we shall never part;
For it loves me ever so.
Sadness only wants to hold me and
Keep me company,
But madness swears
It’s had my back since the start
Therefore remains my truest friend.
And to the argument there seems to be
No end.
I just want them to be allies
And leave me
Here on the summit high.
Just let me be.
Let me be.
Simply be.
