Time takes care of the wound
So I can believe
You had so much to give
You thought I couldn't seeGifts for boot heels to crush
Promises deceived
I had to send it away
To bring us back againYour eyes and body brighten
Silent waters, deep
Your precious daughter in the
Other room, asleepA kiss "Goodnight" from every
Stranger that I meet
I had to send it away
To bring us back again
Morning theft
Unpretender left
UngratefulTrue self is what
Brought you here, to me
A place where we can
Accept this loveFriendship battered down by
Useless history
Unexamined failureBut what am I still to you
Some thief who stole from you?
Or, some fool drama queen
Whose chances were few?That 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 together
Making chance in the starlightMeet me tomorrow night
Or any day you want
I have no right to wonder
Just how, or whenYou know the meaning fits
There's no relief in this
I miss my beautiful friendI have to send it away
To bring her back again
