lyrics

MARRIED TO HOPE

one star two lives
falling from the sky
dreaming still that holding will
bind them fast forever

now she’s gone your loving wife
you looked to her and you made a life
but when you finally gave your soul
you found yourself alone

heal me my lovers say
touch me in that special way
teach me what I could not learn
find my heart now

all the loss and all of the pain
has surely made its mark on you
but deep inside i can see you through the eyes
untouched and true

a storm of love will track you down
and strip your soul and make you whole
and a sadder thing you’ll never know
than when that love decides to go

after all this each true love each kiss
i’m married to hope again
time after time the answers are mine
hidden in the fall

heal me my lovers say
touch me in that special way
teach me what I could not learn
find my heart now
please find my heart now
