To Have and To Hold

from February Fog by Fae Wiedenhoeft

lyrics

the brightest of bright led her to a far and distant path
to a soul of one that shone like her's
their love was a lush a fairytale you'd heard as a child
her memories flowed out like verse

he was a poet in the darkest of the ways
he cut his wounds and watched them bleed
she was the one who found the pieces of his broken heart
and placed them back into one

stars in the blackness hold the wishes of their days long lush
how fondly the eyes adorn their light
here are the dreams of love and life unfolds far past the cold
here are the days to have and to hold

they raced through the garden laughing, loving filled the air
he smiled as she touched his fair face
she fell so silent as she looked into his eyes
and caught a memory of his past that he wouldn't erase

he had a lover in the days of his youth
but the love vanished and his heart fell cold
he lives in the past waiting, wanting for that love
he tried to make this new love like the one of old

stars in the blackness hold his wishes of their days long past
how sullen the eyes dart past their light
shattered are dreams of love and life unfolds into the cold
gone are the days to have and to hold

where ever she wandered life grew full and blossoms flared
but as she stepped away how the petals wept
she ran to the water, pain pulsing through her breast
for she could never be the one that he wouldn't forget

she breathed in the ocean as her tears set sail to sea
a storm of sadness o'er took the night
he wanders the shores a shell, haggard, cold and lost
searching for his true love, the one, the brightest of bright

stars in the blackness hold her wishes of their days long past
how sullen the eyes dart past their light
shattered are dreams of love and life unfolds into the cold
gone are the days to have and to hold
gone are the days to have and to hold
