Oh love how long
Love how long
How long
Oh love how long
Love how long
How long
Oh please don't give me what I want
And protect me from
the quake to come
My dear I know the hounds are near
Oh I fickle as a pendulum
I trembled in the winter pale
Wrecked to the depths
of my wickedness
And breathless luckless though I am
The heart of a lion inside the lamb
Won't you come for me
Across the line
And I hold my heart if
Only only only only
Please don't give me what I want
And forsake my basest whim
There come for
our embrace by night
And I'm harbouring my sin
Darling you know
I'm afraid of leaving
Mornings light bears
the cross I stood
And I wish I was good if
Only only only only
I could
Won't you come for me
Across the line
And I hold my heart if
Only only only only
