hymns from nineveh - lisbon lyrics
Loading...
i keep a photo of you in my heart
no one can take it away
on our honeymoon
when you were kneeling
in the cathedral of lisbon
(and after lighting a red plastic candle
and quietly praying for the crippled
and probably praying for me
and for the marathon runners)
you said
“love is a boat and we’re in it
change is a sea and we’re on it”
and i wept
‘cause i had kept you away from my world
i thought it was best to be silent
but there on the cold cathedral floor
i knew that you had always lived on my island
i keep a photo of you in my heart
no one can take it away
on the back it says:
“love is a boat and we’re in it
change is a sea and we’re on it”
