I like to read and I like to write
|
But you could persuade me to put the book down tonight
|
Just please don't ask to be a song heroine
|
It's not that easy just to stick you in, stick you in
|
Oh babe, I know you're right
|
But there's no time and it's not the night
|
I'd have to face you again and again
|
Although you know I'd like to stick you in, stick you in
|
|
They're all Sacred Songs
|
They're not easily won
|
You know the words just seem to live on
|
The thoughts are sacred
|
Though the sound is profane
|
But this and that you know they're
|
one and the same
|
one and the same
|
one and the one and the same
|
|
You never know how you're gonna end
|
I start out hard and I end up thin
|
You waste your time but you occasionally score
|
But you can't tell from what went down before, down before
|
Oh babe, do you see my point?
|
There's just no time and it's not the night
|
I'd have to face you again and again
|
Although you know I'd like to stick it in, stick it in
|
|
They're all Sacred Songs
|
They're not easily won
|
You know the words just seem to live on
|
The thoughts are sacred
|
Though the sound is profane
|
But this and that you know they're
|
one and the same
|
one and the same
|
one and the one and the same
|
