I Could Have Loved You

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Your song enchants my aching heart My immortal beloved, am I ever a man? What's the coldest hell on a dolly man's strand? For you were trumpet n a marching band [Chorus] And I could have loved you For your strength alone I could have loved you For your simple heart So grave and so unshy are you That I could have loved you without thought of wedding rings [Verse 2] We made our own bed, as young lovers do But we all have our flaws and we had a few I'll never regret the time spent with you For you were an ocean so deep and so blue [Chorus] And I could have loved you For your strength alone I could have loved you For your simple heart So grave and so unshy are you That I could have loved you without thought of wedding rings [Bridge] No food on the table No trees to light the room Brother Kevin lit the candles And silence filled the room [Instrumental] Your words they bleed comfort and solace alike I cherish your letters on these lonely nights My shoes still fall off the Leeman's sand With the ghosts of your lovers and marching band [Chorus] And I could have loved you For your strength alone I could have loved you For your simple heart So grave and so unshy are you That I could have loved you without thought of wedding rings I could have loved you without thought of wedding rings
