| A line of strands to mark the trail, |
| No one said it would be easy. |
| I must admit I’d thought the risk was better waged in younger seasons, |
| all these years in the cold play hell on the throat |
| Until everything I say burns like cinders, |
| Well it’s hard to belong to a girl or a song |
| And the crease of a strangling winter |
| It’s strange to be lost, stranger still to belong |
| On the strings of a twisting lie. |
| Along the way the turns are sharp, |
| No one said they would be easy, |
| I must admit I thought the trip was better made in younger seasons. |
| But all these years in the pursuit made a man of a fool, |
| Till every word I say is unwavered. |
| Well it’s hard to belong to a girl or a psalm |
| In the case of a selfish believer, |
| It’s strange to be lost, stranger still to belong |
| On the strings in a twisting line |
| And when the path I have made |
| From the grass to the grave, |
| I will love you still. |
| And when the sand turns to glass |
| And all that’s left is the past |
| And I will love you still. |
