Description
This song was inspired by a 92 year old man diagnosed with Alzheimer's telling the story of how he fell in love with his wife of 68 years. Every time he told the story, he glowed like an angel, as if the moment had never left him. It is about that instant where you suddenly find yourself feeling like your life has a much vaster purpose than you imagined, where you realize that you have infinite trust In something you cannot see or define.
Lyrics
I have loved you since I met you How can I claim to forget you When you were the one I needed all along You make me want to linger Wrapped around your little finger In the moment where the current is so strong I love you like the singer loves the song I love you like the singer loves the song I have seen the wide horizon been to Hell and seen 'em writhin' There is nothing that can make my life go wrong Fantasies are built from nothing It's the real love that sustains me And I love you like the singer loves the song I love you like the singer loves the song I love you like the singer loves the song There have been times to hard to bear I swear I didn't see this coming Close to the fire, not like desire that's full of lust and leaves you running This is true like gold and silver Sparkling brightly on the river It's too big for you and me to give a name No I cannot live without you and I cannot claim to doubt you and I hope that you can say you feel the same I love you like the singer loves the song Sometimes you feel too close to all the other notches on the handle And your heart has learned to play a sad refrain I'll light a candle I will light a candle for you We will always ride together Keep your hands upon the leather And a saddle only wears out with some time Two entwined like gold and silver Like the beauty of the river Now an ingot, once amalgam unrefined I love you like the singer loves the song I love you like the singer loves the song One day all of the weak will rise up strong I love you like the singer loves the song
