maybe this was real love the hounding of the flesh and i don't know your news far out west is a creature it complicates you, berates you
maybe one more night of moving under you of letting you be the one who raises and lifts me sets me down and regives me
and the nature of your world is dark and beautiful darkness i can lose if you let me go holding on for god you move like an animal move through the rushes that hold me close and i can't stand your love i can't stand without it i can't stand the rhythm that holds me close in this darkness all i wanted was real love from you and you hold me down while you kiss me but still you take my breath away
maybe this was real love the hounding of the flesh and is all i can do as a young man i raised you with both hands i forgave you
maybe one more night the master in your hands in the morning i will be the stranger who broke through let you down, i can't hold you
and when you kiss me, love you can be dark and beautiful darkness i can lose if you let me go holding on for god you move like an animal move through the rushes that hold me close and i can't stand your love i can't stand without it i can't stand the rhythm that holds me close in this darkness all i wanted was real love from you and you hold me down while you kiss me but still you take my breath away
[instrumental break]
this is real love i will kill for you this is real love i will kill for you this is real love i will kill for you this is real love
