Marygold and Silverthorns

Lyrics

(VERSE 1)
Two shining flowers stand alone

A Marigold and Silverthorn

Their hearts were close, their souls were far

They sang their love while they were torn


And still I tried and tried and tried

To send my love through words and lines

Two shining flowers stand alone

A Marigold and Silverthorn



(PRE-CHORUS 1)
I still remember the words you said

I touched a petal from which I bled

Gone by, the promise of tomorrow

There’s closure but I’m still in sorrow

I still hold on to that mile long thread



(CHORUS 1)
I’m not sure what life is and I’m not sure what it means

Still I’m thankful for the world you showed me from miles away, you changed everything

And though I know a thousand miles closer could have maybe saved our love

I’m still thankful for your every second and every hour you gave to me



(VERSE 2)
Two shining flowers stand alone

A Marigold and Silverthorn

They dreamed a future far and wide

But ended soon as it was born


And still I tried and tried and tried

To glue our wings so we could fly

Two shining flowers stand alone

A Marigold and Silverthorn



(PRE-CHORUS 2)
Can’t tell if I haven’t moved on yet

This stress is too much for my poor head

Along the visage of your memory

Still chained, my heart still longs to be free

I’ll stay forever endowed with dread



(CHORUS 2)
I’m not sure what life is and I’m not sure what it means

Still I’m thankful for the world you showed me from miles away, you changed everything

And while I know this pain may last forever and you’ll never fade away

I’m still thankful for your every second and every hour you gave to me



(FINAL CHORUS)
I’m not sure what life is and I’m not sure what it means

Still I’m thankful for the world you showed me from miles away, you changed everything

And though I know a thousand miles closer could have maybe saved our love

I’m still thankful for your every second and every hour, and every memory and every flower, and

I’m not sure what life is and I’m not sure what it means

Still I’m thankful for the world you showed me from miles away, you changed everything

And now I know the stars that shine in my eyes will eventually subside

I’ll continue on forever living in shadows of light of your memory
