Betwixt the Lines

Betwixt the lines Run the mines of unharnessed love Like an arrow through the heart where does it stop, where does it start How do you know what each day will hold This day this year, please stop the cold Through this darkness I see red For my heart, it has bled The pain of loss, the pain of sorrow Shows us that life is something that we just borrow Who am I and who are you Where do we belong in this lifeless stew I feel the light, but I do not see it How am I ever supposed to be it We are one I extol You and I we share one soul I feel your pain, I feel your sorrow Together we will face the morrow I’ll mop your brow, I’ll wash your feet I’ll help you try to get some sleep Let me love you, I’ll hold you in my caress Tell me what can I do to make your pain less I’ll dry your tears, I’ll hold your hand together we’ll draw pictures in the sand
