Lost and Found
So I found some love
The love that you lost
But I found it and thought
You might want it back
So I picked up the love
The love that you dropped
For it was heavy like lead
That wouldn't let you fly
So I've been saving this love
The love you don't want
I've put it in my heart just in case
You might come back for it someday
Now my heart is so heavy
For it is full of that love
It labours as it beats for you
As it waits for your return
But my heart has no brain
It doesn't know you won't come
Though my brain knows it
I can't tell my heart that you're gone
My heart latched to that love
The love that you lost
I can't take it back out
Though my heart is dying
My heart is like a library dropbox
But I gave you the key
I threw the love in my heart
To keep it safe for your return
I'm not quite sure how
I can rescue my heart
If only you'd come back to it
To take claim to your love
As each day passes by
My heart beats a little slower
It's a calming thing but
Soon the beats will stop
