As It Was

There is a roadway, muddy and foxglovedNever I'd have life enough, my heart is screamin' outAnd in a few days I would be there, loveEver here that's left in me is yours just as it wasJust as it was, babyBefore the otherness cameAnd I knew its nameThe love, the dark, the light, the flameEyes at the heights of my babyLet's hope at the fight of my babyThe lights were as bright as my babyBut your love was unmovedAnd tell me if somehow some of it remainedHow long you would wait for me?How long I've been awayThe shape that I'm in now, you're shaping the doorwayMake your good love known to meJust tell me about your dayJust as it was, babyBefore the otherness cameAnd I knew its nameThe love, the dark, the light, the shameEyes at the heights of my babyAnd this hope at the fight of my babyAnd the lights were as bright as my babyBut your love was unmovedAnd the sights were as stark as my babyAnd the cold cut as sharp as my babyAnd the nights were as dark as my babyHalf as beautiful too
