You were there to catch me

When the world was pulled from under me

And all the ashes falling down

Were choking up my blue-green sea

..

You were there to rescue me

When all the love went black and crazed

With all the ashes falling down

I couldn't see the sky for days

..

You were there to help me

When my hopes all failed and soured

And all the ashes falling down

Buried deep the weeds and flowers

..

I promise I'll be there for you

If (God forbid) your world goes mad

I'll keep the ashes off your head

Protect you from your hopes gone bad

…..

I wrote this as a song for my best friend Anna, who helped me out a lot the past year, when my world sort of did seem to be imploding. I hope I will do half as well if she ever needs my help.
