Maybe that it would do me good If I believed there were a god Cut in the starry firmament But as it is that's just a lie And I'm here eating up the boredom On an island of cement Give me your ecstasy I'll feel it Open window and I'll steal it Baby like it's heaven sent
This ain't no love that's guiding me
Some days i'm bursting at the seams with all my half remembered dreams and then it shoots me down again i feel the dampness as it creeps I hear you coughing in your sleep beneath a broken window pane tomorrow girl i'll buy you chips a lollipop to stain your lips and it'll all be right as rain
this ain't no love that's guiding me this ain't no love that's guiding me
no it ain't no love guiding me no it ain't no love guiding me no it ain't no love guiding me
this ain't no love that's guiding me this ain't no love that's guiding me
on winter trees the fruit of rain is hanging trembling in the branches like a thousand diamond buds and waiting there in every pause that old familiar fear that claws you tells you nothing ain't no good then pulling back you see it all down here so laughable and small hardly a quiver in the dirt
