Same Lover

Grief defeats me like a storm Of endless possibility Will it leave me cut and shorn upon an island Surrounded by desolate sea Slow I wander as a cloud on the horizon A part of you that always stays with me I miss you like I miss the calm upon a river I miss you like I miss deceit

It's the same bridges It's the same cost It's the same lover It's the same roads That you can't cross But you still love her

The faintest lines, my favourite scars The finite wistful memories The trust and bonds that we create across a century Are homeless like some fallen tree Nowhere for emotions to roam anymore They appear as flotsam on an endless beach I swim until the tide won't hold me anymore I swim until I'm out of reach

It's the same bridges It's the same cost It's the same lover It's the same roads That you can't cross But you still love her And of the many people that it takes hold of will you recover To the same roads For the same cost To the same lover

I think there's about a million people Been trying to find their own way back here for so long You've got to lift your little valuable head up You've got to lift your little valuable head up, head up

And of the many people that it takes hold of will you recover To the same roads For the same loss For the same lover To the same places For the same cost For the same lover
