Love his music and I love that this one asks the question but doesn’t give trite answers. I do wonder though about the description of love held in the heart
“But held in the heart
It pales like the empty smile adorning
A statue with sightless eyes”
I’m a bit lost in the imagery. The empty smile belongs to the one adoring. Who is the statue with sightless eyes? How is love held in the heart like this as opposed to being
“Elusive as dreams
Barely remembered in the morning
Love like a phantom flies”
I would have thought held in the heart it would be more solid or stable.
