Imagine Our Love (2007)
Context: I'll never stop a bullet but a bullet might stop me.
I'll never drink the ocean but the ocean might drink me.
And I'll never raise a portrait to a gentle man in blue
And I'll never sing a love song for a love that isn't true. I love how the garden grows
And I love the garden rose.
Julian (emperor) (331–363) Roman Emperor, philosopher and writer
Julian, on the songs of the early Germans. As quoted in his Mispogon.
