Meandros

[Verse 1]
And who would have thought that it would be so?
That one would stay and one would go?
That one would think and one would not know
That we had fallen in love?

[Verse 2]
In a basement cafe called Meandros
A pomegranate peeled just for the show
A promise to share the lives we had thrown
Away on the street above

[Chorus]
And I would be there
And I would be true
I would be all that for you
And I would be there
Thinking of you
If only you'd let me be
A part of you
A part of you

[Verse 3]
Back before you and I were born
The lines were drawn, the lies were all worn
And we think the truths that we have sworn
Are somehow different than that

[Verse 4]
And you confided in me long ago
That you were young when you lost all your hope
That all the freedom you fought for so
Was something you did not want

[Chorus]
And I would be there
And I would be true
I would be all that for you
And I would be there
Thinking of you
If only you'd let me be
Part of you
A part of you

[Verse 5]
So I sit here and you sit there
And there we both shall sit unaware
The fighters' corners with everything fair
Except that we both shall lose

[Verse 6]
And I wrote all this down in Ohio
To where, to whom I'm bound I do not know
But heading west only goes to show
An inability to choose

[Chorus]
And I would be there
And I would be true
I would be all that for you
And I would be there
Thinking of you
If only you'd let me be
A part of you
A part of you
