You gave the water in the rose
Over time I've said your name
Oh it's scarlet where you prayed
The hours never seem to go
Oh the door has never closed
How the threshold grows and wanes
It's in the light within the shade
Oh you gave me everything I know
Your image in my brain
And the fragrance of your clothes
The entrance way will be cared for
And the table will be adorned
In this empty home
I'm standing on this edge again
The moment that I often slip to fall
But I won't let go
Into the ether I will wait
Until the final well has drained
So these words cannot come close
To languages that hearts contain
A depth that lives inside of pain
The entrance way will be cared for
And the table will be adorned
In this empty home
I'm standing on this edge again
The moment that I often slip to fall
But I won't let go
