I gave you ink
Imprinted into the palms of my hands
And poems that were engraved
In a way you would understand

Like letters in a bottle
You left them out at sea
A heart sunk lass
Simply wanted to be
Everything
You could ever need

And its the folly
Of the lover
Who's a giver
And a swindler
Who's a thief

But oh darling
You wouldn't even leave a farthing
For you've already taken
My heart
