Shady Love

When I saw your face, I thought you would be my biggest grace. When I heard your voice I thought you would be my greatest choice. When I felt your kiss, I thought you would be my love, to love like this... But when I read the words of your soul, I knew you were the biggest fool. And when I saw your ass, I knew you were my greatest to pass. But when I felt your loss, I knew you would be the frost On my heart To be melted away slowly, day by day, in the sun, where we are far apart Far away, somedays Are better Some are worse, of course I wanna let go But I still want you and the snow I just don't and won't go To have my life and my love be a blow Of smoke in my face Only a trace Of what existed in my head All those lonely nights in my bed You would never really be The shady love I tried to hold; to be free Is the only joy you needed The trees in our throat Blocked the words never spoke
