I held your love
with the fingers of my heart
I tattooed the promise
to all my tomorrows
across my back to be carried for eternity
. . . where are you now ?
It takes forever for distant stars to burn my lips
There is no mercy found on the floorboards that walk across my kiss
. . . where are they now ?
Remember how the needles of time stitched the nights together ?
How easy does the fabric of love become unentwined
. . . remember ?

I held your love
with the fingers of my heart
I tattooed the promise
to all my tomorrows
across my back to be carried for eternity
. . . where are you now ?
It takes forever for distant stars to burn my lips
There is no mercy found on the floorboards that walk across my kiss
. . . where are they now ?
Remember how the needles of time stitched the nights together ?
How easy does the fabric of love become unentwined
. . . remember ?
