Adeline

I never knew love till I met you Despite what I thought back then I was unfamiliar, I do admit I was ignorant to what it all meant I found myself nearby maybe once or twice I found myself alive at a taste But before the day you stole my heart away Love was a word I used with haste Goodbye, Adeline Just as you'd come you've gone away In my heart I find The very blood within me is changed I never knew love till I met you And should I ever know it again From the earth you tilled I will harvest my fill Watering the garden you planted Goodbye, Adeline I've been a drifter all of my life Goodbye, Adeline You offered me a place to call mine Though you've gone away You left me with the strength to thrive Goodbye, Adeline Goodbye, Adeline I've been a drifter all of my life Goodbye, Adeline You offered me a place to call mine Though you've gone away You left me with the strength to thrive Goodbye' Adeline I never knew love till I met you And I never knew loss till you left But even here in the darkest of depths I have no fear and I know I will get back To the open air and the light that is you By which I'm blessed
