[Verse 1]
Eyes like a lake in the sunlight
Green and gold, love I've been told
To keep what I hold
So I’ll keep you as close to my heart as the mountains
Keep the light of day at bay
Until they give it away
[Chorus]
I came weathered and worn and I broke down your door
You got a big cross to bear without me in your hair
Y'said I make you feel like a child
You make the devil so meek and mild
So can I get close to you?
Yours through and through
[Verse 2]
Hold up the pavement
Hear the bullfrogs from the basement
The baby's breath is blooming, love
Right by your side
Rocks in the river, shaking with a shiver
I take a breath and hold my chest
And I feel just fine
[Chorus]
I came weathered and worn and I broke down your door
You got a big cross to bear without me in your hair
Y’said I make you feel like a child
You make the devil so meek and mild
So can I get close to you?
Yours through and through
