These Things

These Things

All of these things 
I left behind 
Ashes to ashes 
Dust to dust 

I bit my tongue 
Before I learned how to speak 
I could make you blush 
Every day of the week 

In the light of the moon 
I see through the eyes of yester noon 
When we thought that we might 
be alright. 
One of us was right 
One of us was right 
You were my night 
You were my knight 

On this new years day 
I wanted to say these things by way 
But the timing was altered 
 By the years end 
We fought and we faltered 

All of these things 
I left behind 
Ashes to ashes 
Dust to dust
