Willing and Able
Echoes of Love Lost: A Journey of Reflection
Lyrics
I'm holding you up like a little flame that burns whenever I think about
I provide support to you like a small flame that ignites whenever I think about...
Our earliest days when we shut out the ones that caught us sleepwalking
Our early days when we ignored those who observed us in a daze or unaware state.
It brings me back when I've gone too far
It brings me back when I've strayed too far from the past.
Seven years and a brand new start
Seven years have passed, and a new beginning is underway.
When we thought there was nothing to it
During a period when we believed there was simplicity or effortlessness to the situation.
And out in the dim light
In a faint light...
I talk with your angel
I communicate with your guardian angel.
And though it don't feel right
Even though it doesn't feel right...
I'm willing and able
I am willing and able to endure or face challenges.
So give me indifference
Offer me indifference...
Or come turn the tables
Or reverse the situation.
And though it's long over
Despite it being long past...
I'm willing and able
I am still willing and able.
I'm keeping you honest
I am ensuring your honesty.
In an empty bed you haven't seen in months
In a vacant bed you haven't occupied for months...
My tentative heart beats weary the pulse of a dead man walking
My hesitant heart beats with the weariness of a person condemned to a lifeless existence.
Clean me up I'm a sight to see
Clean me up; I am a spectacle to witness.
Can't bear the loss and let you leave
I cannot endure the pain of losing you and allowing you to depart.
You act like there's nothing to it
You act as if there's nothing complicated about it.
And out in the dim light
And in the faint light...
I talk with your angel
I converse with your angel.
And though it don't feel right
Even though it feels wrong...
I'm willing and able
I am still willing and able.
So give me indifference
Offer me indifference...
Or come turn the tables
Or reverse the situation.
There's nothing worth saving but
There's nothing valuable to preserve, but...
I'm willing and able
I am still willing and able.
My God it's a curious time
My God, it's a peculiar time...
We're the products of our age
We are shaped by our era.
You just drift away
You just drift away.
