Heaven Knows

I was born in a breaking I was born in love lost and a simmering anger, wild heat I was born loving you I was born tied to a silent grief, a tangled thing You came in and with a glance Made me spin your silver dance Broke my fever, fed my hunger You were bright in my torn sky Filled my nights with lovesick eyes Like a rippling river of every color Wounds defended, wounds repaired I turn my face to shield the glare And in your absence See what's there We got more than we deserved You got blinded, I got burned Pulled apart But then returned The world expands, the world explodes I ground my feet and hold you close It's not an end, it's how it grows Heaven knows
