Couldn't lend 
Him to you forever
Said the hard man from above

I made you 
To a giver and a savor
But also to a loser of love

I made your heart
Big enough to carry
Every kind of pain

I made you 
To a dream for marriage
But also to someone I must drain

I gave your eyes
The colour of the ocean
Where anybody could drown

I'd swear an oath
On your sterling friendship
But I will always let you down

In storms and rain
It's hard to light the candle
And I'm sorry when
It's snowing on his stone

The gravel-walk's so 
Familiar with your footsteps
That's a sound that could make me leave the throne

I couldn't lend
Him to you forever
Said the hard man from above
