5/30

There are days when I forget
How much I have taken
Your good and holy heart
How we kissed till our jaws ached

How much I have taken,
still want to hold onto, like a thief
How we kissed until our jaws ached
How you loved me before you knew me

still want to hold onto, like a thief
The way we sailed together
How you loved me before you knew me
When I stole you honestly

The way we sailed together
an outpouring of stories
When I stole you honestly
an endless day

an outpouring of stories
how you called up your dead
an endless day
your memory a churchyard

how you called up your dead
how I poured out my life
Your memory a churchyard
How I wanted to die there

how I poured out my life
every moment not with you an error
How I wanted to die there
in the house of your heart

every moment not with you an error
I am learning to be a better man
in the house of your heart
I have broken all the windows

I am learning to be a better man
Your good and holy heart,
I have broken all the windows
There are days when I forget
