4 years - peggy sueaquam
Lover gone, this song is a good one
In four years I’ll be anyone but for four years long I was there where you are
Lover gone, this song I swear is a kind one
Cos the words I sing you once helped me write and the fear I feel you once helped me fight
And my skin still holds light from the sun on the beach where we first fell
Oh lover gone, this song is no love because our loves gone
But the four letters of my name are still the first four of yours
The four posts around your bed are still the first in which I crawl
Without pretense without purpose without drink without remorse
When I gave to you four years out of my twenty-four,
I gave to you four years, I gave to you four years I couldn’t bring myself to give you more
