Short and Sweet

I'm much closer to god than I will ever be to you
The question is whose god that I pray and yearn for
All roads lead to ten
My lips are lead
Words from my mouth
Sparks off a broken cable
Do I believe in what I say or is it a rehash of what I want?

I can't promise you that I'll be yours and yours only
Eternity is a long time to spend being loved and loving someone else
I don't keep my promises, it's not for a lack of trying
It's that I've already given it away

I took your glow and swallowed it whole
To keep me warm in someone else's shadow, leaving you darker than I came
I wore you a scarf of smiles blistered and quaking in a valley of my own choosing
Took a dream, tied the knot, left my hold at your porch

I didn't write a song for her
I wrote this song for you
I didn't write this song for you
I wrote this song for her
