Lover gone
This song is a good one
In four years I'll be anyone
But for four years long
I was there where you are
Lover gone
This song I swear is a kind one
'Cause the words I sing you once helped me write
And the fear I feel you once helped me fight
And my skin still holds light from the sun
On the beach where we first fell
Oh, lover gone
This song is not a love song
Because our love's gone
But the four letters of my name
Are still the first four of yours
The four posts around your bed
Are still the first in which I crawl
Without pretense, without purpose
Without drink, without remorse
When I gave to you four years
Out of my twenty-four
I gave to you four years
I gave to you four years
But couldn't bring myself to give you more
And lover gone
This song is not a long one
But for four years
We played safe
In a place that was warm
