lyrics

I see in your smile that your teeth they are cracking
I hear in your laugh all the weight that it’s lacking
feel in the crease of your shoulder
the winter grows older and I
I taste in your breath that is bitter as blood
smell the dirt of your soul that’s been dragged through the mud
you are dark and you’re moody
but I see your beauty and I

I will take you to my bed
darling, rest your weary head
bury deep beneath the covers
ever lovely, ever lover
you will always have these words
that I have said
come to bed my love
come to bed

I smooth back your hair and the lines of your face
press my hands on scars I cannot erase
melt the ice from your fingers
the pain that still lingers
and I

with clean and warm water I will wash your feet
I will tell you I love you on broken repeat
I’ll remind you to smile
we won’t talk for a while
and I

I will take you to my bed
close your eyes and breathe instead
bury deep beneath the sadness
ever anger, ever gladness
you will always have my body
and my bread
come to bed my love
come to bed

I see in your eyes that are solid as stone
I know that you think you are better alone
but the winter grows colder
we’re both getting older and I

I’ll be your story, a fish and a star,
light the pathway for when you forget who you are
let my love remind you
I’m here safe beside you and I

I will take you to my bed
baby, rest your wayward head
stay here with me til whenever
stay together, yours forever
it is here beneath the blanket we are wed
and you’ll always have these words that I have said
come to bed my love
come to bed

Nearly a decade late to the Taz party, but I’m so glad to be aware of it now! I don’t know what elixir Griffin put into the album but I would like to drink a gallon of it. katiegreene137
