Bound

The way of the world
Has taken its toll
Ravaged my body
And bitten my soul

I'm ruined by rain
Weathered by wind
I've been invaded
Without and within

[Chorus:]
And I ask
I am asking you
Asking you if you
Might still want me
And I ask
I am asking you
Asking you if you
Might still want me

Once you said
I'm made of fine stuff
I've been corrupted
And taken enough

Now you appear
Making your claim
Inside my heart
Is the sign of your name

[Chorus]

All these words
Like "darling" and "angel" and "dear"
Crowd my mouth
In a path to your ear

The way of the world
Has taken its toll
It's ravaged my body
Bitten my soul

[Chorus]

When I said
I am bound to you forever
Here's what I meant
I am bound to you forever
