Taught us the urgency of love so well
Had to learn to be lonely for someone else
We know this peace it can’t endure
As all our best intentions falter
I’ll try and carry on like you carried me
Because I saw Her and myself in me
I found a reckless love to cloud our misery
We never thought we’d change a thing
Put our dull hearts at ease
Thought of your face again, of your hand in my hand
As the skin we wore begins to shed
So maybe we’ll see how well our bodies bend and weave
So I’ll make believe
There’s still a will in me
Worth salvaging
So I drift to sleep
As you sift through me
A young lover’s feat
