|
Still the pulse survives |
|
The conscious candour of our conversation |
|
Lovely as you are |
|
I see the strain, the pain, the degradation |
|
Strips of light delightful |
|
Either side of bars so thick and wide |
|
You hide them with a colourful sigh |
|
Falling at your feet in sheer joy |
|
That you were able to receive me like a favourite chair |
|
Soaking up the tears if by magic it'll make me |
|
Ever warmer even after you're not here |
|
Could I be a boat for you a while? |
|
Could I stay afloat for you and sail in your smile? |
|
Could I be a boat for you |
|
And ever gain this weight for you |
|
Could I be a boat for you a while? |
|
You are the yellow flower of my youth |
|
The scent of nothing wasted |
|
With little left to prove |
|
Oh graceful evergreen you take me |
|
Over hill I've ever been |
|
And others, just illusions |
|
Only seeming to be |
|
Falling at your feet in sheer joy that you were able to |
|
Receive me like a favourite chair |
|
Soaking up the tears if by magic it'll make me |
|
Ever warmer even after you're not here |
|
Could I be a boat for you a while? |
|
Could I stay afloat for you and sail in your smile? |
|
Could I be a boat for you |
|
And ever gain this weight for you |
|
Could I be a boat for you a while? |
