Poet |
| Obsession, it takes control |
| Obsession, it eats me whole |
| I can’t say the words out loud |
| So in rhyme I wrote you down |
| Now you live through the ages |
| I can feel your pulse in the pages |
| I have written you down now |
| You will live forever |
| And all the world will read you |
| You will live forever |
| In eyes not yet created |
| On tongues that are not born |
| I have written you down now |
| You will live forever |
| Your body lies upon the sheets |
| Of paper, and words so sweet |
| I can’t say the words |
| So I wrote you into my verse |
| Now you live through the ages |
| I can feel your pulse in the pages |
| I have written you down now |
| You will live forever |
| And all the world will read you |
| You will live forever |
| In eyes not yet created |
| On tongues that are not born |
| I have written you down now |
| You will live forever |
| I have read her with these eyes |
| I have read her with these eyes |
| I have held her in these hands… |
| I have written you down now |
| You will live forever |
| The virtue’s in the verse and |
| You will live forever |
| I have written you down now |
| You will live forever |
| And all the world will read you |
| You will live forever |
| In eyes not yet created |
| On tongues that are not born |
| I have written you down now |
| You will live forever |
| You will live forever… |
