This Box Of Ashes

A Waltz - Yes Another Waltz - I didn't mention I Love Waltzes ? Well - I Love Waltzes

THIS BOX FULL OF ASHES �" THE URN FOR ROMANCE

MEMORIES OF FIRST GLANCES AND CHARRED PHOTOGRAPHS

 

AND ALL I EVER WANTED WAS FOR YOUR LOVE UNCONDITIONAL

AND ALL YOU EVER NEEDED WAS SOME CHAOS TO TRY TO CONTROL

 

THIS TESTAMENT TO OUR UNION OF TIME PURPOSEFULLY WELL SPENT

THIS RAGING MAELSTROM OF EMOTIONS WE HAPPENED TO GET CAUGHT IN

TOASTS TO YEARS YET TO BE LIVED WITH GLASSES ¾ FILLED

CHARADES OF HAPPINESS IN THE HOME STRETCH

THAT ENDS WHEN THE STARTING GUN SOUNDS

 

THESE BATTLES WE STRUGGLE THROUGH DAILY AS THE PAIN SINKS DEEPER IN

YET ALL WOULD BE REMEDIED EASILY BUT NEITHER OF US WANTS TO GIVE IN

IF EVER THERE WAS A REASON FOR COMPROMISE TO BLOOM

ID CHALLENGE THE BEASTS OF THE LABYRINTH JUST TO RECITE THEM TO YOU

 

AND ALL I EVER WANTED WAS THE LEGEND TO LIVE UP TO THE TASK

AND ALL YOU EVER NEEDED WAS A HERO TO FIND HIS WAY BACK

 

AND ALL THOUGH IT MAY FALL ON DEAF EARS

AN ACCOMPLISHMENT IT'D BE NONE THE LESS

ONE SINGLE MOTIVATION TO GUIDE ME

THROUGH TO THE END OF THE TEST

BUT LUCK IS NOT MY COMPANION

AND FATE A FICKLE ACQUAINTANCE

DESTINY ‘S PLAYING HER TRICKS AGAIN

AND LOVE IS THE PERFECT ACCOMPLICE

 

IF YOU FIND THIS BOX OF ASHES �" THEN YOU'LL KNOW THAT I'M TRULY GONE

AND ALL THE DREAMS WE PLANNED AT NIGHT WILL FADE WITH THE RISING SUN
