For You

For you, dear

I'd lose my tongue to talk, dear

No whispers in the dark, dear

For you, I would

And if you, dear

Found my words were unclear

And my voice, you can't hear

For you, I would

Write you a poem

Just to let you know

I would write you a poem, my love

For you, dear

I'd lose my legs to walk, dear

No footprints in the chalk, dear

For you, I would

And it's true, dear

If you demons are near

And you're drowning in tears

For you, I would

Build you a boat

Just to keep you afloat

And I would build you a boat, my love
