You came by lighting a seasoned road Somewhere between a lie and a story untold With the wisdom of a father The hunger of a son The beauty of a young boy And the words of a grown man And I had nothing there to give you I was drowning deep My wish was long gone And my heart was asleep And while you turned I've had too many nights to dream Too many flames to dim and I saw you in him With the march of a warrior The blue blood of a king The short breath of a sailor And like a separated twin You were standing there before me With your effortless speech Pretending to be harmless Yet impossible to reach But this time you knew That the minute I walk away from you I'd take it all, I’d take it all I'd take it all So here we are unruffled and polite As I carry you on, into the night With the affection of a mother The hollow of a child The memories of a young girl Who's innocence has gone wild And I have everything to give you A lifetime to forsake But your heart is asleep And it's not mine to take
