Heart And Bones

Heart And Bones

You stand there like a statue,

A martyr to your pain.

If I tried to reach you

would you send me away again?

I was in your arms.

I felt empty and so alone.

I was in your arms.

I reached out to you

but there was no one home.

How can you live with someone

and yet feel so alone?

I was just a prisoner

I was just a prisoner

I was just a prisoner

of my heart and bones.

You were my beloved,

cold as marble

soft as rain.

If I tried to  reach you

would you send me away again?

I was in your arms .

I felt empty and so alone.

I reached out to you,

there was no one home.

  How can you live with someone

yet feel so alone?

I was just a prisoner

I was just a prisoner

I was just a prisoner

of my heart and bones.
