Indiana Jones Couldnt Steal The Gem I Guard (Youre In Good Hands)A Poem by Mandy MooreIf you feel the time is now To sever all your ties And you turn all the lights off on the inside You lock the door and hide the key To a better time I will wait for your return
I'll guard your home Keep it safe from intruders And I'll keep the light on So you can find your way home I'll braid the frays from the last knot you made As long as you return to me
In the glove compartment I find the pictures of Our trip to the coast But I didn't them To remember what I recall the most The light shining off your hair Encompassed you in a sunny glare And it seemed that the heavens were illuminating you And on the day that we had left The ocean breeze and the salty air Played a song for us Requesting our presence Forever more But you said the time had come And the coast was a loaded gun That the open road Was where we called home You made a clean cut of our ties And turned off the lights inside You boarded up the door and threw away the key Promising me a better life
I will guard your heart Keep it from breaking And I'll keep the light off We can see all the stars I'll weave us a new rope, which can hold no ties As long as we stay the way we are © 2009 Mandy Moore |
