I put you away
Somewhere deep in me
Where shadows and strange things grow
Its somewhere that I don’t go
But I know there’ll come a day
When I’ll clear all that stuff away
And I know that all that space
Will be mine and mine alone
Well I’ve heard someone say
“if it’s true love you will know”
And I’ve heard my mother say
“if it’s a goer then it will go”
And when you clear all that stuff away
And you look at all that space
Stretching far away
Stretching far away
You’ll know
That it’s yours and yours alone
