he was Amcrazy, of course
from the Gfirst she must have Fknown it
but she G***** went on with him
and Gnever once had Amshown it
she Amtook him off the streets
and she Gdried his tears of Fgrieving
******G*********************
she beGlieved in his Ambelieving
   oh Che was the sun burning Ambright and brittle Gand
   she was the Gmoon shining back his light a Amlittle
   he was a Fshooting star, Gshe was softer and more slowly
   he Amcould not make things possible
   but Fshe could make them holy - hoAmly
well she Amgave him a daughter and she Ggave him a son
she was a Gmother and a wife, and a Flover when the day was done
when he was Amtoo far gone for giving love
what he Goffered her instead
was the Amknowledge she was the only thing
that Fwas not in his Amhead
