Seven YearsHow did I love you?There was no measuring Far above this dirty world Far above everything In your tower over it You were clean So warm and insightful Were you in my eyes I was sure the rightful Guardian of my life Damn you betrayer How you lied But for seven years You were loved I laid golden orchid crowns Around you feet For seven years I bowed down To touch the ground So wholly your devotee You were All that I could see I've got my sight now I see everything you hid So don't you try to right now All the wrong you did I might forget you But not forgive But for seven years You were loved I laid golden orchid crowns Around your feet For seven years I bowed down To touch the ground So wholly your devotee For seven years You were so revered I made offerings of Anything and everything I had You were All that I could see |
