Having been by that old bank tower,
|
I'm inclined to wonder why you feel so strong.
|
You can't have really seen the hour
|
If you think she's trying to do you wrong.
|
I see you got that lump in your throat
|
I hear you mumbling, "That's all she wrote."
|
Love was in the next room drinking antidote.
|
|
You ought to know that girl by now.
|
She'll never settle down anyhow.
|
You let your heart go too fast.
|
You let your heart go too fast.
|
|
Broken glass turns back to flint and sand.
|
I only cease to love as love demands.
|
As you know it takes a while to clap those
|
fragments from your idle hands.
|
Couple months could dry a sea of tears,
|
leave only salt beneath our dried up piers.
|
We won't believe we cared, I swear, in a couple years.
|
|
You ought to know that girl by now.
|
She'll never settle down anyhow.
|
You let your heart go too fast.
|
You let your heart go too fast.
|
|
If time heals all wounds, don't you know that
|
Time also deals them.
|
The days go by, and everybody feels them.
|
We stuggle with our fates,
|
But our action only seals them.
|
|
They say that murder ain't the fault of the weapon.
|
I'm smoking sad to be the gun.
|
I want to blow you all away, but I don't want to put no
|
Bullets into anyone.
|
I see the feathers that enfringe your heart.
|
I see the blood ooze from around the dart.
|
Cupid spites the sense that keeps two
|
Mismatched souls apart.
