2003-11-24 - You Were Enough
you were enough...
which isn't to say
less than a love
which had faded away
a mourning dove
in the dew of the day
you were too much
more than diamonds could pay
priceless to touch
and cheap in some ways
you were enough
and I'm straining to say
we had a love
and a love is always
.
you were enough
in your own funny way
though there was stuff
that just couldn't stay
feelings are tough
they can lead you astray
but we had a love
and we still do today
.
I was alone
and you came like a dream
thrilled the unknown
by the rays you could beam
much more than an act
of passion and heat
love was intact
and so I repeat
you were enough
and it's easy to tell
I'm still in love
and I'm wishing you well
.
hear now my heart
it's vibrating still
you were the art
expressed in the will
every part
and every mill
this to impart
with feather and quill
where do I start
to pour out and fill
mountains depart
submerged into hills
inundate far
no one can kill
island apart
this is the deal
.
like leaves in the fall
you whisper above
the noise in the hall
the pain of lost love
fate's annual ball
the fatal last shove
a fix, a last call,
and you were the stuff
to overcome all
you gave me your love
I don't mean to stall
but you were enough...
