"I Wear Your Love" lyrics
"I Wear Your Love"
The things I've collected, bought or selected
The clutter that fills up my rooms
I can lock up and leave it, never retrieve it
Leave nothing but my love for you
Let the storm winds blow, I will not be cold
I wear your love
Thrown over my shoulders like a blanket of down
I wear your love
Like a bright suit of armor reflecting the sun
On the chilliest night though I travel light
It is always enough for I wear your love
You watched without knowing where I was going
Trusting the vision I'd found
For if dreams were a fire, I had desire
That could burn this old house to the ground
So I walk quite free, for surrounding me
I wear your love
Like a scarf that I borrowed that still holds your perfume
I wear your love
Pulled tight as I'm sleeping under a cold lover's moon
On the chilliest night though I travel light
It is always enough for I wear your love
Don't you know, can't you see
Head to toe it is covering me
Like a stone, the ocean's tide
Nothing can hurt me or turn me aside
For I wear your love
Thrown over my shoulders like a blanket of down
I wear your love
Like a badge of devotion of love and beyond
On the chilliest night though I travel light
It is always enough for I wear your love
It is always enough for I wear your love

Just to reach the other side
