Well, I tell you a secret I've been hiding? Spending a night here without you In pursuit of a piece I selfishly long for, baby A piece of something new We were happy until we said tomorrow We were happy until we looked ahead And the soul of a baby missed, while hunters thinking Of a kid that never cried In the night, she gets a fright She dreams of all her friends No one spared, the dream has cared For everyone she has forgotten It's a funny old time to be a lover An easier time to be a friend With one arm behind my back, I'll heal you, darling A good love, I will send You were my lover, and you were my mother You were my sister when the ship went down The world is killing me, a man to see But my albatross has flown In the night, she gets a fright She dreams her friends have gone No one spared, the dream has cared For everyone she has forgotten
Now I'm looking at rain outside my window A tower of hard-fought solitude All the life of the world is elsewhere, blood and intimacy Warm and still in love (warm and still in love) We were warm and still in love (warm and still in love) We were warm and still in love
