December of love

I paint the two of us on a canvas in chains
I hung it on the wall so the story sustains and I layer
the colors with care in veils with the sky broader than
an ocean and higher than high

I will remember these embers of love
and I'll never take it down cemented in its socket as
long as I love

well lucky you to have me by your side
never would you know never could you decide
taking my hands as your own, cover it in gold
leave me for a moment and I watch you grow old

I will remember these embers of love
and I'll never take it down cemented in its socket as
long as I love
these embers of love

I will remember these embers of love
