My sentiments


Recommended Posts

Here are the lyrics from Natalie Merchants "For Seven Years" my case my be 4 years but the sentiments are the same.

 

How did I love you?

there was no measuring

far above this dirty world

far above everything

in your tower over it

you were clean

 

so warm and insightful

were you in my eyes

I was sure the rightful

guardian of my life

damn you betrayer

how you lied

 

but for seven years

you were loved

I laid golden orchid crowns

around your feet

 

for seven years

I bowed down

to touch the ground

so wholly your devotee

 

you were

all I could see

 

I've got my sight now

I see everything you hid

so don't you try to right now

all the wrong you did

I might forget you

but never forgive

 

but for seven years

you were loved

I laid golden orchid crowns

around your feet

 

for seven years

I bowed down

to touch the ground

so wholly your devotee

 

for seven years

you were so revered

I made offerings of

anything and everything I had

 

you were

all I could see
