This song's chorus is from the great, great poem I carry your heart with me by e.e. cummings.
lyrics:
i will use words of others
my tongue always fails you, my love
so i will use the tongues of brothers in arms
and hope it’s enough
i carry your heart with me
i carry it in my heart
i am never without it
anywhere i go, you go,
my dear
the wonder that’s keeping the stars apart
i carry your heart with me
i carry it in my heart
i will use the pens of authors
my quill always crumples for you
so i will dip into eloquent coffers
of love, and hope that they’re true
i carry your heart with me
i carry it in my heart
i am never without it
anywhere i go, you go,
my dear
the wonder that’s keeping the stars apart
i carry your heart with me
i carry it in my heart
i will let my throat fall silent
these pages will give love it’s due
and know, my own, that when I read these letters
they all were put there just for you
there is no verse, no dusty word
that doesn’t hold your name
and all the songs I’ve ever heard
were just bated breath until you came
i carry your heart with me
i carry it in my heart
i am never without it
anywhere i go, you go,
my dear
the wonder that’s keeping the stars apart
the tremble that’s keeping you so in the dark
the truth that tears this world apart
i carry your heart with me
i carry it in my heart
