The things people do looking for understanding
|
Defy understanding
|
If only they knew where the love they seek
|
Is truly to be found
|
Into the arms of night with their dreams held tight
|
In their endless flight through the failing light
|
|
The places you go thinking that love may find you
|
When love is behind you
|
It's all you can do to let the angels
|
Find their own way home
|
Into the arms of night with your endless fright
|
With your face alight and your prey in sight
|
Into the breach in search of the new
|
Though after so many times
|
You will have betrayed that too
|
|
Into the arms of night with your endless fright
|
With your eyes all bright and your prey in sight
|
Into the arms of somebody new
|
Until that's no longer so,
|
And you are no longer true
|
