Maja's Song

"Couldn't lend him to you forever"

Said the hard man from above

I made you to a giver and a savor

But also to a loser of love

Made your heart big enough to carry

Every kind of pain

I made you to a dream for marriage

But also to someone I must drain

I gave your eyes the color of an ocean

Where anybody could drown

I'd swear an oath on your sterling friendship

But I will always let you down

In storms and rain, it's hard to light the candle

And I'm sorry when it's snowing on his stone

The gravel-walk's so familiar with your footsteps

That's a sound that could make me leave the throne

"I couldn't lend him to you forever"

Said the hard man from above
