Seven Years

How did I love you? 
There was no measuring 
Far above this dirty world 
Far above everything 
In your tower over it 
You were clean 

So warm and insightful 
Were you in my eyes 
I was sure the rightful 
Guardian of my life 
Damn you betrayer 
How you lied 

But for seven years 
You were loved 
I laid golden orchid crowns 
Around your feet 

And for seven years 
I bowed down 
To touch the ground 
So wholly your devotee 

You were you were
All I could see 

I've got my sight now 
I see everything you hid 
So don't you try to right now 
All the wrong you did 
I might forget you 
But never forgive 

But for seven years 
You were loved 
I laid golden orchid crowns 
Around your feet 

And for seven years 
I bowed down 
To touch the ground 
So wholly your devotee 

And for seven years 
You were so revered 
I made offerings of 
Anything and everything I had 

You were, you were
All I could see

You were, you were
All I could see

You were, you were
All I could see

You were, you were
All I could see

You were, you were
All I could see
