[Verse 1] Love came down like a cooling tower Where an hour glass yesterday Just dust and self-loathing (ooooh) And un-returned clothing (ooooh) The life stands still at an unmanned till But the slow walk home in the evening chill Have me feeling pretty virtuous Until I see her The flashing indicators of my favourite saboteur And suddenly
[Chorus] All my darkest dreams come swimming in to focus And it's hopeless To resist you cross your wrist some twisted prayer or supplication Ten Hail Mary's in the morning
[Verse 2] She left town like a medicine show In an oh so familiar scene And I vowed forever solo (oooh) Time to focus on the crocuses Till I'm through it and I'm zen And I'll do it again I'm a diligent village idiot toeing the line but watching for a sign And when this cheap red wine or the big blue moon Come to me my little ingenue Suddenly
[Chorus] All my darkest dreams come swimming in to focus And it's hopeless To resist you cross your wrist some twisted prayer or supplication Ten Hail Mary's in the morning
[Verse 3] Love is a push and a shove sometimes Suddenly
[Chorus] All my darkest dreams come swimming in to focus And it's hopeless To resist you cross your wrist some twisted prayer or supplication Ten Hail Mary's in the morning All my darkest dreams come swimming in to focus And it's hopeless To resist you cross your wrist some twisted prayer or supplication Ten Hail Mary's in the morning I am reborn Cause my girl loves yesterday And lives for tomorrow
