My Love Cannot Die

My Love Cannot Die

My love cannot die
Though it has been murdered
My corpse still believes
In the power of love
I eat and drink each day
My shoes wear less tread
As I walk by the river
And watch the water
Above me birds fly
And my love cannot die
Though it has been butchered
My corpse cut in pieces
Yet those pieces still believe
In the power of love
I read and think each day
My heart wears less tread
As it walks by the memories
That swim in the water
Within the oceans of my mind
And my love cannot die
Though all is different
And I am older now
And each day I ask why
Why my love cannot die
