True Love

from Abernethy / The World Outside the Window 2009

Joe Abernethy (vocals, synths) / Natalie Vermeer (piano) / Stephen Toon (bass) / Tim Loewen (electric guitar)

We used to be in love but you cannot remember what began in earnest in the month of December. You led me to your bedroom, far from the madding crowd.

Wasn't I a prince on my 21st birthday? Naturally, I fell to pieces just after midnight. You sang to me as crimson crystals hung from your eyes.

What's gone and what's past help should be past grief.

Am I the silent one? Exiled from the kingdom of your infinite love until my boundless soul parts with this flesh, bone and blood.

True love is divine, to wit. I told all my secrets in the fervor of it. You broke my heart and laid my forlorn body on a stone.

We used to be in love but you cannot remember what began in earnest in the month of December. You led me to your bedroom, far from the madding crowd.
