What Lovers Have to Do
when the day was dark and the leaves wouldn't fall
you were the maddest of them all
the rocks would crack as the sound of the earth
and your hands were dirty stained with dirt
the sound of innocence rang in your ears
what love demanded you to hear
with the wind your heat has gone to find
another person of my kind
a single heart is made for two
home for me and home for you
but I will share with someone new
because that's what lovers have to do
