What's everlasting anymore
My heart's a weathered shield
My arm without the strength to hold
It's fallen in the field
And so I dream of days of yore
And long for simpler times
But as the shining moon doth glow
I'll find you on my mind

And if I found the words to state
Or yet eternity could sate
A harrowed mind and swollen heart
Broken yet to fall apart
And it is this harrowing
Keeping me on guard
A flame that could engulf the world
But you it never char
