You want love
And you think that's enough
But look out
It could turn you to dust
You'll be running around, making no sound
Feet hardly touching the ground
And the funny thing is
You won't really know where you're going
All your friends
They say just keep your head
It's alright
Things are best left unsaid
So just keep it in, under your skin
hide it away on the shelf
Don't show your cards
Don't make it so hard on yourself
'Cause you want love
Love that will bring you alive
Love that will fill up your life
Just take your time
Tell me now, what will you do
Will you stand waiting in line?
Like the one who stands waiting for you
You want love
And you stand at the gates
And you think
That the hours won't let you wait
And you're tied up by time
And the things they expect you to do
Till you're down to a whisper
Turned out in ten shades of blue
So, I'm writing a letter back home
From a place I don't really belong
And I write as the night-time comes on
All the clowns and the jokers you meet
Trains and taxis and trembling lights
And the cities on every street
Oh my love
Let the fog cloak my head like a veil
All my senses dissolve into dust
Let the dirty black rain dull my sight
'Cause you're with me in my dreams tonight
