So Much Love

You left me

Scattered our things and lives

By the riverside

Drove away, the highway wide

Didn't see me running behind

Now I know that love made you blind



But didn't I say

Bear not my burdens

But bear with me?



I wronged you

I scattered our maybes

Over the Mississippi

I thought that something was missing

A something fantasy of nothing



Now I say

Bear not my burdens

But bear with me



And if I can't have you for myself

Then neither should anybody else



I left you

With my scattered remains as proof

Of my guilt and truth

And I guess good things can be said

If all we ever did

Was kill each other with

So much love
