I Never Thought I'd Come to This

by bru

I'll burn my hands for you,
place them in the fire of life.

I'll take any chance I can taste and
I'll take it with your arms upon my worn down shoulders.

I'll ride the train through morning
if it means seeing your clown smile.

I'll let every simple moment turn into an incredible one.
A boy grasping his teddy bear becomes
a boy grasping his dead mother's hands because
all she ever wanted was for him to be a man.



I'd throw my heart into the river
if I knew you'd be there to catch it.
