when there was nothing i had no you
and sometimes now i imagine
but there is no life without you
so that doesn't last long
when there was you i had me too
and that's what i wanted anyway
so thank you for making me
though i said i wanted you

i was alone and dying till you came to me
and stood smiling and waiting
you give life and love and reason
to poison and filth and waste
you brought light to dark corners
and blew away cobwebs of deceit
with a smile and a nod alone
you were pretty much alright
