The Henna's Still There
Lyrics
On a stage
Like a king
With a ring
And all the baggage
That I would bring
You, a smile
Spinnin' 'round
With a family
And your friends
Who could see
This soul come to me
Now they'd put henna on our palms
Put a band around our hands
We were smiling
In a wild and wondrous storm
On a journey
With some cold spots
And our brief hots
How beguiling
We've been styling, caring, loving, and warm
And the henna's still there
It stays on my mind
It was pressed from your hand
At a moment on mine
You said that you loved me
See where are we now?
Like the henna's still there
All the work
To make a home
A spiral castle
A common road
This whirlwind we've known
It took each day
From dream to reel
From all the strain inside
A yearning, churning deal
So touching still to feel
Now they'd put henna on our palms
Put a band around our hands
We were smiling against winds we didn't always understand
Only you could know
And me
What endures from love and marriage
On our palms I almost see
'Cause the henna's still there
It stays on my mind
It was pressed from your hand
At a moment on mine
You said that you loved me
See where we are now?
Like the henna's still there
Then a child
Amazing, oh
Suddenly
We had a new life from love
And onward we'd go
From two pasts
A third one yet
A family
Creatively
A ship with sails that we've set
And a love that won't forget
