Quiet when you're sleeping Kisses when you're sad I was waiting out to save you You were into that romantic shit And wanted to die young And it was plain to see To everyone but me There are no haunted places Only people we still wish we could see In the year of our love I pledged I would say to you From all the howling shapes in the night you lay claim to And all the jealous lovers who insisted they were true But leave like funeral roses after they're through But they take no note of the flowers Sitting there only temporal(?), they last only an hour
