If it is binding If it is finding out Nothing fills the valley in my chest Only something I knew I'd regret Or so I figure Until I find myself Tugging out the linens on the bed Leaving no impression where I slept The truth is always when it's gone, it's gone And I left you a fortune And even in the full embrace of love Is it really just one? We dream of binding We dream of finding out Morning comes and rider rings the hand As if we are anything but powerless And so I figure And here I find myself Mourning my condition, I can't tell If it's proof that I am sick or well But you can't paint a picture of the sun You can't see it undone The truth is always when it's gone, it's gone But I left you a fortune And even in the full embrace of love Is it really just one?
