Book of Longing

I see my life In full review It was never me It was always you

There’s truth that lives And truth that dies I don’t know which So never mind

I want to love you now I want to love you then I want to love you never And then begin again

I’m angry with the angel Who pinched me on the thigh And made me fall in love With every woman passing by

I make my plans Like I always do But when I look back I was there for you

And yes she lied about it all Her children and her husband You were meant to judge the world Forgive me but I wasn’t

now look at me married to everyone but you

you would look at me and it never occurred to me that you might be choosing the man of your life

There is no need That this survive There’s truth that lives And truth that dies
