It's a hurting desire strong and sweet
|
Memory so pretty I can hardly say
|
You thought I was sleeping as you walked to the street
|
You gave what you wanted then you went away.
|
|
Did you mean what you did?
|
Would you give it again?
|
What you gave as a gift, a gift?
|
|
I went on a mission to the town where you lived
|
Dark, dusty places you've not seen in a while
|
I want to seek the basements where you hid
|
I want to see your face as a little child.
|
|
Did you mean what you did?
|
Would you give it again?
|
What you gave as a gift, a gift?
|
|
Did you mean what you did?
|
Could you give it again, ever again?
|
What you gave as a gift, a gift?
