I passed on the painted veil Somerset, some other time and love Weighed without intention And that caught her eye She knew what I was thinking of I’m not that hard to find
When I wish of her I wish her beneath my gaze And if I drink of her it will be all my days And when she told me she was a trinket I forgot to be amazed I should have been amazed
Sand in the hallway The glisten of her laugh I’ve never found it easier to spend my days My soul sings the prowler’s nocturne From deep down within this cage We have too many last nights in our lives Too many desperate hours Whispering goodbyes And baby the earth shook The last time I heard you cry
Yes you loved me Gently caressed my face Not some little sorcery Some simple twist of fate I was hundreds of feet away I should have been amazed I should have been amazed
