I wanna walk around
Show you places that i love
Tell you stories that i got
And show you how happy i feel
To have you here.

But in the middle
If i become quite
Remember
There was one a girl—
Who lived and loved here
And now she is trying to—
Live and love again
And if you stay
You might bring her back
Again.

I wrapped my heart in paper
And carried it home today
It was bleeding——
I tried to stop

It was broken——
I tried a fix to
hold it whole
But nothing could
I tried to put it back
And found no soul

I wrapped it again
In the same worn paper
And left it
out to freeze

A gentle gaze found it
Didn't try to mend it
Just stayed with it to heal

As time went by
The bleeding ceased
And cracks closed
A warmth held it all together
What began with a broken heart bouquet
Now looks
beautiful.
