Love: Merwin – “My Heart Is Lonely”

Merwin

“My Heart Is Lonely”

What a beautiful song.  Merwin is one of the most prolific and excellent singer/songwriters out there, and “My Heart Is Lonely” is one of the best ever.  The lyrics are so beautiful:

The days are getting shorter
And the nights are getting cold
And my bones are getting older
And my bones are getting old

My heart is lonely
My heart is lonely

Where is she?

I don’t know if I can make another year
I don’t know if I can

My heart is lonely
Where is she?

The music matches this beautiful song.  I love Merwin.  He is one of the best and most personal writer around.
