Couldn't lend him
him to you forever
Said the hard man
From aboveI Made you to
A giver and a savor
But also to a loser of loveMade your heart
Big enough to carry
Every kind of painI Made you
to a dream for marriage
But also to someone
I must drain
I Gave your eyes
The colour of an ocean
Where anybody could drownI'd swear an oath
On your sterling friendship
But I will alwaysLet you downIn storms and rain
It's hard to light the candle
And I'm sorry when
It's snowing on his stone
The gravel-walk's so
familiar With your footsteps
That's a sound that could
Make me leave the throne
Couldn't lend
Him to you forever
Said the hard man
From above
