I got up this morning,
Got shot at with a bow;
The arrow went straight to my heart,
It was Cupid, you know.

He said he had a message
He thought I'd want to hear;
He told me that you loved me,
And that you held me dear.

He said you'd want an answer
If I felt for you the same,
Because if I really didn't,
It would be a crying shame.

So I told Mr. Cupid
To fly on back to you,
And shoot you full of arrows
So you would have a clue

Of just how much I love you
You mean the world to me.
I wish to spend my life with you
Through all eternity.

the sadness in those eyes, the intelligence in that face. the fraility in those arms, the love nobody could erase. seeing the tears struggle, trying to hide the pain. it was like watching a lone bird, trying to stop the rain.
