On Love, in Sadness

adapted from the poem "on love, in sadness" by jenny keene Oh love it's a brittle madness, I sing about it in all my sadness It's not falsified to say that I found god so inevitably well, It still exists pale and fine. I can't dismiss And I won't resist and if I die well at least I tried And we just lay awake in lust and rust in the rain And pour over everything we say we trust It happened again, I listened in thru hallways and thin doors Where the rivers unwind, rust and in the rain endure. The rust and the rain are sins And I'm in like Flynn again So go on place your order now cause some other time is right around the clock You can stand in line. it finally begins just around the clock You can have your pick if your stomach is sick whether you eat or not And there is just one thing that I never forgot And we just lay awake in lust and rust in the rain And pour over everything we say we trust It happened again, I listened in thru hallways and thin doors Where the rivers unwind, rust and in the rain so easy These are the comforts that be You see well I'm feeling lucky oh well, maybe that's just me You should be proud of me oh hell if you could only see That we're gonna grow on up to be, ah yes We are thick as thieves Oh love it's a brittle madness, I sing about it in all my sadness It's not falsified to say that I found god Inevitably, well it still exists pale and fine I can't dismiss And I won't resist and if I die well at least I tried And we just lay awake in lust and rust in the rain And pour over everything we say we trust It happened again, I listened in thru hallways and thin doors Where the rivers unwind and the rust and the rain endure (the rust and the rain endure. I'm sure.) I am insofar to know the measure of love isn't loss Love will never ever be insofar to know the measure of love isn't loss Love will never ever be lost on me. Love will never ever be lost on me. --- On Love, in Sadness - Jason Mraz
