Love is something of an art, |
|
When we are led by such divided hearts, |
|
Painted black, their centre red, |
|
Beating now, |
|
They're loaded with regret, |
|
Full of memories that you can't neglect, |
|
Of all the things that you've yet to prove, |
|
Oh the times I've thought this whole thing through, |
|
Lived whole lifetimes in disguise from you, |
|
How can I hold to a pale idea |
|
When you've given everything you can, |
|
And by everything you feel, you stand? |
|
But I could never belong to you, |
|
For all the troubles of an onward path, |
|
The confusion lacks a tragic punch, |
|
When we take the desired turns, |
|
All we have is all we can find, |
|
No-one else can make this mine, |
|
I could never belong to you, |
|
Pictures in the family ark, |
|
Faces faded, stories gone, |
|
One sure light from eras dark, |
|
Two by two they all marched on, |
|
But I could never belong to you. |
