Flesh Wound

about

An Insignificant Love Song. To be sung with a smile, not a wince.

lyrics

I won’t call you a single time
I won’t write you a single line
Might not even tell my friends we’ve met
And it’s not that I don’t care at all
And it’s not that what we shared was small
But I know in any case I won’t forget.

Sometimes when the night is dark and I need memories like this
I’ll remember the flesh wound of your kiss.

Some people say that love is blind
Some say it comes just one dramatic time
I don’t believe that either of these are true
But sometimes by accident
You find more sweetness than you meant
And in that sweetness I think I found you.

Sometimes when the night is dark …

There are tears as I turn to go
I’d love to stay here but we know
Our lives are moving fast on separate paths
It hurts a little and it stings
But we’ve been brushed with angel wings
And there’s a small new softness in our hearts.

Sometimes when the night is dark …
