lyrics

I gave you my heart, gave you my soul
Stood ready to provide and protect you
For all that you’re worth
You were my Lady, you were my Star
But something inside (you) drove you so far away

I’m trying to let go, it’s only the start
I’m new to this game,
You’re the first to break my heart
So, right now,
I think that I’ll bow out
Until I can come down
From these clouds of love

Their silver lining darkening with rain
Growing heavier, threating those beneath with pain
We’ll never know what would have followed the storm
I fear we gave up
But it is to live and to learn

A lesson in love
straight to the soul
Mind over matter while feeling unwhole
Mayhaps I will and mayhaps I won’t
Someday forget that you were once so close

You were the Sun and I was the Moon
No one could ever doubt that our souls were in tune
They saw young love, we lied, it was true
Just too damn afraid to let our song play through

Their silver lining darkening with rain
Growing heavier, threating those beneath with pain
We’ll never know what would have followed the storm
I fear we gave up
But it is to live and to learn

Their silver lining darkening with rain
Growing heavier, threating those beneath with pain
We’ll never know what would have followed the storm
I fear we gave up
But it is to live and to learn

I’ll not understand you asked my permission to leave
No one owns your heart, it was not mine to keep
Years have gone by, and now you’ve settled down
I pray he honours, respects you, the gem that he’s found.
