They had a white face |
|
They had black eyes |
|
They had burns all over their bodies |
|
They had love for my revulsion |
|
And they kissed away my repulsion |
|
They had a white face |
|
And black eyes |
|
Their father came |
|
From across the sea |
|
To rescue |
|
To rescue |
|
To rescue me |
|
He said |
|
"If you spend all your heart |
|
On something that has died |
|
You are not alive |
|
and that can't be a life" |
|
Love what you can |
|
Love what you can |
|
Until it dies |
|
And let it lie |
|
Let it fly away |
|
Love what you can |
|
Love what you can |
|
Until it dies |
|
And let it lie |
|
Let it fly |
|
Away |
|
He had a white face |
|
He had black eyes |
|
He had burns all over his body |
|
And he was right |
