My Dear, My Dear

MY DEAR, MY DEAR

Day after day, my hands, my hands
Tired and worn beside me
Night after night, my heart, my heart
Pale and weak inside me

All of my feelings sway as a lonely cyprus
Under these abandoned skies
All for the love of my
My dear, my dear

Tear after tear, my eyes, my eyes
    light beyond me
Time after time, my thoughts, my thoughts
Turn to her so fondly

All of the feelings we have known and felt
Through a poisoned needle's eye
All for the love of my
My dear, my dear

Tonight goes on forever
A .... untethered
Tonight, unending high
Is all for the love of my
My dear, my dear

Breath after breath, my words, my words
Falling like stones beside me
Note after note, my voice, my voice
Change ... inside me

All of my feelings flow as a sweet confession
Under this transparent high
All for the love of my
My dear, my dear

Tonight goes on forever
A .... untethered
Tonight, unending high
Is all for the love of my
My dear, my dear

All of my feelings weave
Through a poisoned needle's eye
All for the love of my
My dear, my dear

All for the love of my
My dear, my dear
