Sanctity

I lay in the forest at night
By the brook and the old willow tree
I dream of the joy we shared
In my heart to my love and me

I can’t live without you she said
As her tears fell to the sea
My heart belongs to another now
But I need your sanctity

My love for you is a part of me now
It’s a force that I cannot control
I know you’re gone
But my hearts searches on
For the dreams that I will not forgo
I can’t live without you she said

As her tears fell to the sea
My heart belongs to another now
But I need your sanctity

And God knows we reap as we sow
The life you’ve lead
Has left me not alive and not yet dead
I’m paying the price for you now
My Angel of pain

Five years of heartaches and tears
Told me one thing I already knew
The fire in your eyes was a clever disguise
How do I carry on without you?

I reach for the rope an knot
As it hangs from the old willow tree
I sway in the evening breeze
As I dream of my love and me
