In my life
a metaphor of darkness into light
more like an exception of consideration
like a national myth
and you couldn't find the rivers and mountains
they were not on the map
but true places never are
they're only inside you and me
then you said something stupid like
love steals us from loneliness
she had a north atlantic film star grace
thats why her tears are out of place
a kinder sadness has more style
so nothing will make her smile
