Verse 1 with main riff

you were full and fully capable

you were self sufficient and needless

your house was fully decorated in that sense

(guitar came in)

you were taken with me to a point

a case of careful what you wish for

but what you knew was enough to begin

and so you called and courted fiercely

so you reached out entirely fearless

and yet you knew of reservations and how it serves

Chorus 1

G A

and I salute you for your courage

G A

and I applaud your perseverance

G A

and I embrace you for your faith

G A

in the face of adversarial forces that I represent

Verse 2

so you were in but not entirely

you were up for this but not totally

you knew how arms length-ing can maintain doubt

and so you fell and you're intact

so you dove in and you're still breathing

so you jumped and you're still flying if not shocked

Chorus 2

G A

and I support you in your trusting

G A

and I commend you for your wisdom

G A

and I'm amazed by your surrender

G A

in the face of threatening forces that I represent

Verse 3

you found creative ways to distance

you hid away from much through humor

your choice of armor was your intellect

and so you felt and you're still here

and so you died and you're still standing

and so you softened and still safety in command

Chorus 3

G A

and I salute you for your courage

G A

and I applaud your perseverance

G A

and I embrace you for your faith
