My love, she speaks like silence
|
Without ideals or violence
|
She doesn't have to say she's faithful
|
Yet she's true like ice, like fire
|
|
People carry roses
|
And make promises by the hours
|
My love, she laughs like the flowers
|
Valentines can't buy her
|
|
The bridge at midnight trembles
|
The country doctor rambles
|
Banker's nieces seek perfection
|
Expecting all the gifts that wise men bring
|
|
The wind howls like a hammer
|
And the night blows rainy
|
My love, she's like some raven
|
At my window with a broken wing
|
|
In the dime stores and bus stations
|
People talk of situations
|
Read books, repeat quotations
|
Draw conclusions on the wall
|
|
Some speak of the future
|
My love, she speaks softly
|
She knows there's no success like failure
|
And that failure's no success at all
|
|
Aah...
|
