Dear Alexander
You are dear to me, Alexander Tell me friend, how well do you remember The glass jar to hold the frog and salamander To keep them breathing through the frost of mid-November? You said the air holes in the lid must look like stars to them But maybe our stars are just holes that let heaven's light in
Have no fear with me You are ever dear to me I hope you can hear me Alexander
It is clear to me, Alexander The way that shame can make us all pretenders After your family heard the scandal They packed and headed back to the panhandle Your thinning hair and body scream surrender But you hold onto a hope you can't remember
Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com But have no fear with me You are ever dear to me We can change by grace and mercy Alexander
We're all wounded animals, Alexander Who without warmth won't make it through the winter Let's not huddle and hide in homes of rotting timber But rise upon their brightly burning embers Your broken brother's love grows ever tender Love lives and breathes forgiveness, Alexander
So have no fear with me You are ever dear to me We survive by mercy only Alexander
