Lyrics

Time takes care of the wound, so I can believe
You had so much to give, you thought I couldn't seek
Gifts for boot heels to crush, promises deceived
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, asleep
A kiss "goodnight" from every stranger that I meet
I had to send it away to bring us back again
Morning theft, and pretender left, ungrateful
True self is what brought you here, to me
A place where we can accept this love
Friendship battered down by useless history
Unexamined failure
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 into starlight
Meet me tomorrow night, or any day you want
I have no right to wonder just how, or when
And though 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
