Castle

If I gave you nightmares,

You’d turn them to fantasy;

A swirling haven, sea-green dreams

In the castle of your heart.

 

If I handed over messes,

Beautiful artwork you’d create;

Spinning strings of disbelief

In the castle of your heart.

 

And if I say I’m lonely,

Say you’d lay me down in roses;

Petals, the sweetest company

In the castle of your heart.

 

Please just say you miss me,

In the columns of crystal;

Nestled deep within confines

In the castle of your heart.

◄ You'll Find me in You

When I die ►
