Allegory

I have turned the pages
Of people that I've known
The stars have been aligning
They told me long ago
I could wait a lifetime for you
Mother's waiting here with open arms
Don't be alarmed

Your silhouette's my allegory
I just wanna read your story
Show me all the chapters
No one else has read
Your silhouette's my allegory
Turn the pages feel your glory
Lost in words of wonder
And things I can't unknow

Oh
You're my allegory
You're my allegory
You're my allegory
