For David

You were a man who knew how to love
I didn’t know that then
or I wouldn’t have waited so long

Years of sitting on a shelf
perhaps my date had expired
Away from the comfort of the moon
we sat and talked in public
You could do that in those days

How did you meet him people ask
Oh, its a wonderful story
You’ll read about it one day
How he rescued me from the tower
and broke open my heart
