A Song From A Knife Salesman To His Wife On Their Wedding Day by Listener
Well darlin this is it, and I'm not a complicated person
You're all I've got, and I mean you're all I'll ever need
Just like you are, you look like you could use these open arms
With these broken arms, I'll try and hold you all together
You spun the wheels, on this rusty heart, and I'll never be the same
And we're no accident, though sometimes we won't survive the crash
I'll be your ambulance, I'll let you sleep right here inside of me
Let it leave a scar when it heals, so we can remember what not to do
It's those natural tattoos that I love, drawn over every inch of you
It's our only map, it's all we'll ever have to offer
And all I am is for you, until I'm tied down to my coffin
I'm not that good with words, I'll try my hardest anyways
And they get caught, in my throat no matter how loud I scream them out
Grow old with me, I can't seem to say it any more convincingly
So take another step, just take another step, take another breath with me
Take 2 more steps, and I'll let you rest, but one more step for me
Take another step, just one more step, take another breath with me
Take 2 more steps, and then you'll rest, but take one more step towards me
