about

a love song to the wounded soldier. may true protectors return from battle whole in heart, mind and spirit....

lyrics

you said you were broken by what you seen in the war
that you been so long fightin you can't put down your sword
you said your heart has gone sleeping behind a cage of bone
you said that no one can reach it so you're always alone

so don't call it love if it makes you feel judged
you told me that you can't love
it's hard to feel my touch
but by the good Lord above you make me feel loved
for me that's enough, just to feel loved

you said that you cannot love me
you're not willing to try
but with you I thrive, in your arms I'm alive
and I see forever when I look in your eyes
I swim in the vast open world of your eyes

no one else in this world makes me laugh like you do
but every step I take towards you, you move away from me two
and you get all my jokes and everything that I say
and you make me feel precious in your own unique way

I'll just have to pretend I don't love you
you said you don't like to play
I send my song through the walls of your haven
turn my face to heaven and pray
though you told me not to

If you knew I was writing this down in a song
you'd run 43 steps backwards like I done something wrong
so I won't let you hear it, I'll just keep it inside
I just say that I like you and the rest I will hide....
