Ghost Story

I watch the western skyThe sun is sinkingThe geese are flying southIt sets me thinkingI did not miss you muchI did not sufferWhat did not kill meJust made me tougherI feel the winter comeHis icy sinews,Now in the firelightTha case continuesAnother night in courtTha same old trialThe same old questions askedTha same denialTha shadows close me roundLike jury membersI look for answers inThe fire's embersWhy was I missing thenThat whole December?I give my usual line,I don't rememberAnother winter comesHis icy fingers creepInto these bones of minesThese memories never sleepAnd all these differencesA cloak I borrowedWe kept aor distancesWhy should it follow thatI must have loved you?What is the force that binds the stars?I wore this mask to hide my scarsWhat is the power that pulls the tide?Never could find a place to hideWhat moves the earth around the sun?What could I do but run and run and run?Afraid to love, afraid to failA mast without a sailThe moon's a fingernailAnd slowly sinkingAnother day beginsAnd now I'm thinkingThat this indifferenceWas my inventionWhen everything I didSought your attentionYou were my compass starYou were my measureYou were a pirate's mapOf buried treasureIf this was all correctTha last thing I'd expectThe prosecution restsIt's time that I confessedI must have loved youI must have loved you
