There were things that she never said
She knew my heart had already been fed
But time had passed without a sound
And she hoped new lands were to be found
The man she thought who loved her well
Was a lost island that would never tell
She always loved him the way he asked
Then he would stare at things that passed
He left one day when the sun came up
And she knew because he took his cup
He traveled far but he never left town
It was his confusion that brought her down
She climbed the stairs by herself that night
There was nobody who could explain his fright
She never could hear the things he tried to say
Until the truth decided it was to be that day
She found the bed they shared crying alone
The man she loved became just another one
She heard a song about hanging by a rope
Somehow she decided there was still hope
She could only think of being found that way
What if it was him who came back to stay?
She asked Jesus to send her one more dove
Because to die like that is not to live for love
