Love Turned To Rust (original LaurieLeeC)

I promise, next time, you shall see a bit of me, and not so sad a note!....this is the bare naked type of offering..bare voice and bare pickin' , bare thoughts. So please, bear with me,..and thanks for watchin'...this production as always, is SWAK.

Love turned to Rust

when I left, I knew
I wouldn't be back
It was many things,
that helped me decide

we had a good run
more joy than tears
I'm sorry I hurt you
we always fought and loved
side by side

did I marry too young?
still just a child
How could I know my own mind?
well you can't keep the vine down
when the stubborn vine
just wants to climb
he won't let me go, no
and I'm already gone

I'm a canyon that's too wide to forge
a river to broad to cross over
I'm a wound that feels just like a gorge

and someday will never come
that we will ever forget
the life we shared and the
lives we created, the miles we logged
and yet..............

Now it's time, to let go
the rope, the rope that you hold
you must watch me slip away
into a place that you can't follow

just turn around and walk away
and go fast lest the pain cause you sorrow

broken heart shatters to dust
like metal exposed to water
our love of the ages
all eaten up
truly now truly, turned to rust

He won't let me go
he won't let me go
and I'm already gone

I'm a canyon that's too wide to forge
a river to big to cross over
I'm a wound that feels just like a gorge

someday will never come
(never ever)
that we will ever forget
the life we shared and the
lives we created, the miles we logged
and yet..............

When I left, I knew I wouldn't be back........
