Remember when we were sleeping in silk?
A boy and a man nestled in Montreal
I gave you a ring that didn't fit
and you kept it on your bedside table
but I would have married you
Remember how your words tripped and tiptoed?
They climbed inside and found a home in my heart
Memories spilling out from your eyes
they almost knocked you down to your knees
but I would have carried you
Remember sitting at the foot of your bed?
The last conversation we had as lovers
You said you wouldn't love again until you died
and the thought of it just shatters me
