To Be Gentle

One Day We Will No Longer Hurt

To Be Gentle


I would rip myself apart before I’d see you do the same to yourself
Please just know that I’ll keep you safe and warm
Away from all these pains and aches that trouble you

I am grateful for you in my life
I will never take you for granted
I feel so deeply for you
I hurt for these wrongdoings that have been plaguing you

These curses that have been looming over your shoulder
Will soon come to a close
Back and forth these thoughts fade in and out
Over and over again

One day these words spoken from
A heartfelt dialect will become clear

One day we will no longer hurt
One day we will not hurt
And our curses will no longer be here to haunt us

This is the sound of a love ascending
Through my being, my spirit, my everything

Oh, remember our dreams
And how much this means to me
Oh, remember our dreams
And how much you mean to me

This is the sound of a love unprecedented
