Ancient songs
I want to thank all of you Rampers for listening to my sappy songs and for making music fun again! This song was hard to put in any particular genre, so it wound up in the "Singer Songwriter" category. Of course it's a sappy love song that so easily besets me!
Mainstay
Her heart was like the shifting sands
The waves of life had tossed it to and fro
Around it formed a veil, a band
A barrier that to that day did grow
And no light shone through
And bitterness grew
And time moved on
And hope seemed gone
A flower in the rain
Drinking in that new life again
The angry armor scales
Falling from a heart no longer pale
A love bent on healing would rescue her today
Carrying her pain, he would then remain
Her Mainstay
The memories have faded now
She scarce can see the life she left behind
A solemn promise she avows
To treasure everyday a love so kind
With eyes open wide
Her guardian and guide
A heartbeat away
A love come to stay
A flower in the rain
Drinking in that new life again
The angry armor scales
Falling from a heart no longer pale
A love bent on healing would rescue her today
Carrying her pain, he would then remain
Her Mainstay
Mainstay
Her heart was like the shifting sands
The waves of life had tossed it to and fro
Around it formed a veil, a band
A barrier that to that day did grow
And no light shone through
And bitterness grew
And time moved on
And hope seemed gone
A flower in the rain
Drinking in that new life again
The angry armor scales
Falling from a heart no longer pale
A love bent on healing would rescue her today
Carrying her pain, he would then remain
Her Mainstay
The memories have faded now
She scarce can see the life she left behind
A solemn promise she avows
To treasure everyday a love so kind
With eyes open wide
Her guardian and guide
A heartbeat away
A love come to stay
A flower in the rain
Drinking in that new life again
The angry armor scales
Falling from a heart no longer pale
A love bent on healing would rescue her today
Carrying her pain, he would then remain
Her Mainstay
