NATALIE MERCHANT lyrics : "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 you feet


For seven years
I bowed down

To touch the ground
So wholly your devotee


You were
All that 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 not forgive


But for seven years
You were loved

I laid golden orchid crowns
Around your feet


For seven years
I bowed down
To touch the ground

So wholly your devotee

For seven years

You were so revered
I made offerings of
Anything and everything I had


You were
All that I could see
