(For Mary McCullough)

What a time it was.
I was befriended and was a friend
for the longest while. You were here,
and I never knew you from the sun.

Snow is on the ground
but this is not my landscape now,
where I find myself without you.
Oh I never knew you from the sun.

Oh I had a friend. I had a friend I loved.
Now I walk for miles
into dark forests of piano songs. I'm lost.

Deep into my sleeves, deep in my sleeves,
pockets down where I always reach,
you are there.
Oh I never knew you from the sun,
never, never knew you from the sun.

    it's about how much someone can love another. Without the sun everything would mean nothing cause we'd die. there is no difference between the sun and the one she loves, to her, they are the same- she cant see the two apart as this person is the reason she is alive.

    ok, so it's almost over-emotional- but i i've become cold-hearted -this is the most beautiful song about how much someone can love another.
