I Am Very Grateful

I always knew I couldn't save you,
as you walked hand in hand with mercy to my garden place.
Remember that flowers don't have to just grow at your feet--
they can offer a kiss to your morning face.

And I am very grateful
that I found someone to love so much.
Those sentimental gestures were just my favorite way to be good,
as I was carried to the softly whispered secrets of your dearest touch.

So I'll pack my bags until next time,
for your good heart is still so easily found.
I always knew I couldn't save you,
but I still liked having you around.

I still liked having you around.

And I am very grateful
that I found someone to love so much.
Those sentimental gestures were just my favorite way to be good,
as I was carried to the softly whispered secrets of your dearest touch.

...to the softly whispered secrets of your dearest touch.
