you
the world can’t be explained, there should be no attempt to
but the one thing that will never wane is my desire for you
there would be nothing to retain, there would be nothing to redo
and the truth was clear and plain until i met you
it doesn’t matter what they say, it doesn’t matter what they do
if they take it all away or give it back to you
it doesn’t matter what you’ve seen, it doesn’t matter where you’ve been
the cut was pure and clean and we would do it all again
yeah it took me by surprise, i didn’t ask but wanted to
beneath the surface the mystery lies so the question i withdrew
i’ve seen half the written page and what remains I’ve seen right through
ambiguous and vague and not even close to being true
it was close enough to touch but not close enough to see
how i wanted you so much, how i wanted it to be
it doesn’t matter what they say, it doesn’t matter what they assume
when it all gets swept away, becomes gossamer and jejune
it doesn’t matter where or why, it doesn’t matter how or who
we’ve flown as far as we can fly, no more damage to undo
because i love you always have and always knew
how I’d pay for my mistakes, now i must do what i must do
because i love you, always have and always will
time to face what i must face, take the bitter little pill
we’ve gone as far as we can go – gone as far as we can pursue
this has all been done before – we are seeing nothing new
there could be no larger flame or tighter rope to hold on to
can’t accept what they are saying – it’s the one thing i refuse to do
