Lover loves me |
|
But he loves somebody new |
|
Lover wants me |
|
To be his mother too |
|
He don't recognize |
|
His luck until his luck is through |
|
He's a nightingale |
|
I'm an ugly dove |
|
I don't wanna speak |
|
Done said enough |
|
No one can mend a human heart that's torn in two |
|
In a moment's space he's gone |
|
And my ship has run aground |
|
And a thousand drunken dreams are sunken |
|
If you leave me: |
|
Lover, please leave me something. |
|
You |
|
Don't leave me diamonds |
|
Don't leave me jewels |
|
You leave me silence |
|
You leave me bruised |
|
You leave me with the knowledge of the evil we do |
|
But |
|
Nothing could control the weather |
|
And nothing could console my devils |
|
And no-one knows the manner in which they'll burn |
|
In a moment's space he's gone |
|
And my ship has run aground |
|
And a thousand drunken dreams are sunken |
|
If you leave me |
|
Lover, please leave me something. |
|
You wrapped me in the stained shroud of morning |
|
And pulled the cord |
|
You threw me through the stained-glass floor |
|
You dropped me in the hole |
|
A whole lot of nothing |
|
In a moment's space he's gone |
|
And my ship has run aground |
|
And a thousand drunken dreams are sunken |
|
If you leave me |
|
Lover, please leave me something. |
