Don't say I love you too
cause then all I can do for you
is gladden or give you pain.
Between your hope and suspicion
ah before your blame or praise.
And on me alone with the shine of the light
the shame of having a face.
Have I not had nearly a hundred times
only to promise not to die.
I have begun my long love to god
that quite and aimless chore.
Its a life learning languages
but you create nonsense and nothing more.
The lumpy lead of patience
is a long road to swift happiness of gold.
To take all this once more upon myself
I, the estranged turn home.
I fell in love and I needed a road map
to get me to your door.
And when I arrived
you said "Listen let me go, let me go, and I'll want you more".
The lumpy lead of patience
is a long road to swift happiness of gold.
So I'm taken everything I have left to give
and my friends are bringing me home.
