Sometimes
What you long to hold
Is what you need
What you need the least
Wild and clawed
And closing in
It mauls you
Mauls you like a beast
Love and love
And love some more
'Til nothing's left inside
Leave your prayers
Under the door
Show me where you hide
Show me where you hide
Sometimes
What you dream about
Is what you need
What you need to lose
Deep and dark
And murmuring
It sinks you
Sinks you in the blues
Love and love
And love some more
'Til you're pillaged blind
Leave your heart upon my wall
Show me where you hide
Show me where you hide
Like a shadow you're here to stay
Like an echo you like to play
And love's the game whose rules
Whose rules you toss
Aside
Aside
Aside
I knew you
In the Stone Age
I knew you
Trapped within your cave
I knew you
Once in Paris
But time has
Only steeled your stealth
Love and love
And love some more
I've tried to make you mine
Leave your prayers
Under the door
Show me where you hide
Show me where you hide
Show me where you hide
