To've Never Known
Last of Autumn's Fading Feel winter on the wind
First snow came morning Pale an soft just like your skin
Memory taps my shoulder I'd ignore it if I could
Doesn't fade as I grow older It's time to Roll this boulder up a hill
V2
Seems I met you in the springtime Seemed I'd known you all my life
Didn't see the passing of seasons 'Fore you came to be my wife
We built a house in dreamland We lived in it so well
Now, is a year's worth of heaven Worth a century of hell
Chorus;
Why must this all be real Why is the only thing I feel
A draft in every room Across a never healing wound
There's gaps in my life since ya Blacked-out months of memory
From when I took the bottle For my confidant
With the cold rain of November There's small things I remember
It's how you linger still Like your long hair in my comb
But I'd rather live without ya Than to never've known ya
V3
Simple twist of helix Secret down in your DNA
Doctor said he could not fix it Said dammit try, he said boy it's too late
Now the flowers in your garden Are overtaken all by weeds
And my heart is all but hardened To everyone and everything.
