Story Behind The Song

A heart-rending recollection of time with a now-lost love.

Lyrics

I still walk around, and I wonder
What are the pieces of you that I have left?
I look up above, and I feel you
Helping me still try to do my best

Recite from memory
The things we'd see together, you and I
And all but for our fate we'd be there now
And you know, there will never be
Another one who can shelter me
So my love, please tell me how
Hey my love, I could use you now

Those were ragged days, in the summertime
When we couldn't keep the light out if we tried
Now my life's a maze that I stagger through
The only way I'm going to make it's with you by my side

So can I hold on to everything we ever were
While I figure out what's left of me?
I'm going to hold the shards of my life out
For you to gaze upon them

So my love, tell me what you see
Hey my love, you're still good for me

Hey my love, hey my love
Where's that horizon we all come upon?
Hey my love, hey my love
Save me a place there, out on your ocean

I remember now
All that I meant to say
In the honey-colored light of that last day
It's that everything
You ever were
Is all the proof I'm going to need you were heaven made

Hey my love, hey my love
Where's that horizon we all come upon?
Hey my love, hey my love
Save me a place there, out on your ocean
