Stained Glass Heart

from Mike & Eileen Chapter One by Mike Roy

/

lyrics

June 1st, 2005

Well I
am sorry for
what I done
and thank you for


holding on when it certainly was all crashing down
and I told you not to breathe or make a sound
and no one thought we’d last another round


but you
held on through
all the rain
though it grew


it could not - break what you had tethered to this spot
driven deep a stake into your heart
saying nothing would be ripping us apart


not if you
had anything
to do
with this thing


that clung on to your body like a wet sail to a mast
torn in tiny pieces but at last
sewn back to be better than brand new…


this tattered love
this stained glass heart
pulling through
like at the start
I can’t believe
He pulled us through…
you and me…
me and you.
