The Petrified Forest

When we were together I lay in your river

As the fish swam through my hands

Raindrops and roses fell from the heavens

Just to brush against your skin

And a strand of your hair lost to the wind

Sent doves wheeling through the air

But now I'm alone in the petrified forest

Stumbling on rocks in the dark

But I remember, I still remember

When you held me in your beautiful arms

When you left me alone the sky turned to stone

And my legs rolled into the sea

Why did you go? The sea was so cold

My arms blew off in the breeze

I search for your footprints, the scent of roses

As the wind weeps over the sea

But now I'm alone in the petrified forest

Stumbling on rocks in the dark

And I remember, I'll always remember

When you held me in your beautiful arms
