lyrics

Unconditional
-------------------
In the shadow of this mountain,
In the whisper of your prayer,
In this quiet space I'll tender,
For your moments,
For my share,
For my share,
I will love you if the shadow is malign,
I will love you, though the Devil steals our time,
I will love you, though this ending has to start,
Unconditional, the tearing of my heart.

I am here, can you hear me?
Take my hand, I am here,
Take your time to remember,
I will always be here,
Always be here,
I will love you when you don't recall my face,
I will love you when you've lost all paths to grace,
I will love you when your dignity departs,
Unconditional, the tearing of my heart.

I would carry all your baggage,
Find the wind to fill your sails
Take the voices from the keyhole,
Be the cross,
To take your nails,
To take your nails,
I will love you though we haven't talked for years,
I will love you, through you alligator tears,
I will love you though we'll always be apart,
Unconditional, the tearing of my heart.
