Song for a Wedding

If today's your wedding day
Or you stand here at a grave
If this kiss is just your first
Or your heart's still parched with thirst
You say you've seen it all before
So I'm sentimental
But for a moment of your time
I'll give you something free

It took me years to find
It took me years to find

Just in case you've never known
Just in case you're not full grown
If you're not the kind to see
If you're not the kind to be
If you've never found the girl
The only one left in the world
Or you somehow lost the boy of your dreams
Listen to me

It isn't screaming in your head
It isn't sleeping in your bed
It isn't lies, it isn't truth
It isn't faith, it isn't proof
It's not a game like you have heard
You'll never find it in a word
It's not about who is in power
For a lifetime or just an hour

So if today's your wedding day
Before you turn to walk away
Here's a gift that you can use
But it's just between us two
It's one I never could accept
Though it's all that I have left
What I searched for all these years
You'll find right here in our tears

That's the secret of love
Crying
Love is crying and that's all
And that's all, and that's all
And that's all, and that's all
And that's all
