I Wish You Well

We met it seems a life ago
When youth was strong and love was bold
But now our fear has taken hold enough
Your eyes they held a promise of
It flew away that frightened dove
So now the push has come to shove enough
Won’t be the one to hold your hand
I hope, I beg you’ll understand
I’ve drawn a line across a sand
My love, I wish you well
I miss your simple cotton dress
The finger in my fingertips
The taste of you upon my lips enough
But our home was in a house of cards
The broken glass and mirror shards
Have left their mark and deeper scars enough
Won’t be the one to hold your hand
I hope, I beg you’ll understand
I’ve drawn a line across a sand
My love, I wish you well
Oh, the but the night is colder
All of the lies are over
No longer on my shoulder now
Won’t be the one to hold your hand
I hope, I beg you’ll understand
I’ve drawn a line across a sand
My love, I wish you well
Won’t be the one to hold your hand
I hope, I beg you’ll understand
I’ve drawn a line across a sand
I wish you well
I wish you well
I wish you well
