Broken hearted and sad, I walk upright
A dumb ape in a world of dumb apes
A log in the waves
Knowing sorrow's always beside me, I walk upright
"O crown of light!" I sometimes say
"I know you're grand
But I must not forget my wife
So I hold her hand"
And with the wide-eyes sorrow brings
We see it all
Like logs in the waves
Effortless through oceans squalls
And we know storms are relentless
So so are we. We will not leave
Sadness, my wife, and I
Are honest with each other
And in mornings, I reach my hand under the quilt
Where she hides
To tickle her feet
And at my touch
She cracks a smile
