Virtue

The thing 'bout the day that we met I remember I had this feeling I'd known you forever Much like a magnet, more like a tether Without you I float in the wind like a feather Try as I may, I'd never hurt you Though I'm no angel my name is a virtue Somebody told me that they can hear hope In all of the words that get stuck in my throat Pour out my pockets, I'm empty handed I try to explain but they don't understand it Can you close your eyes and just try to imagine? Walking toward me, you're holding a lantern Let ya decide, I'll let ya decide I'll go along with it, I'll close my eyes Since you've been gone, there's nothing to lose Whatever you want from me, I let you choose Sweet is the touch of your new-born wings We fly in circles and play with the sun We haven't seen this world before So fair, so bright, so blue the sky
