I Did It For You

i could have clung to you
lord knows i wanted to

i could have tried to clip your wings
and bind you with imaginary strings

i could have mesmerized you with a mermaid chant
i toyed with the idea but decided i just can’t

i could have begged and pleaded
but it wasn’t what you needed

i walked you down the celestial garden path
knowing all too well i’d face alone the aftermath
