Poetry - T-Bone Burnett

I’ve been so long searching for you

Through ice and sleet and snow

Now I’ve finally found you I will never let you go

I’ve been broken into pieces

And frightened like a child

Hiding in the blackness of the darkness of the night

I love you more than dreams, and poetry

More than laughter more than tears, more than mystery

I love you more than rhythm, more than song

I love you more with every breath I draw

In the blackness of the darkness

There are no shadows cast

People are but phantoms and

The hours never pass

But your love is furious

And your love so hot it burns

Love is mysterious

It cuts too deep for words

I love you more than dreams, and poetry

More than laughter more than tears, more than mystery

I love you more than rhythm, more than song

I love you more with every breath I draw

I’ve been so long

I’ve been so long

I’ve been so long

I’ve been so long
