作词 : Williams | |
Love took a long time, it followed me here | |
And it landed on light feet, and it whispered in my ear | |
Love spoke of my past as a valuable test | |
And smiled, and said she who loves last loves best | |
'Cause you know life is hard, but now you also know your mind, | |
So now you're going out to love, but on your own side this time | |
Where you still think of famine, and you still dig up train fare | |
And you won't mind the wrinkles, 'cause you know how they got there | |
In love but not at peace | |
In love but not at peace. | |
Once for me love was the boat inside of a bottle, | |
It felt like a gondola ride, | |
When you float with the nicknacks, and you don't hear a sound | |
Where the fish never lived, and you don't miss the ground | |
And the moon hangs above like a Valium pill | |
And I say I'll be fine, but I don't think that I will | |
But today I got work, and I like it that way | |
It's a case of a still life gone cinéma verité | |
In love but not at peace | |
In love but not at peace. | |
And I still need the beauty of words sung and spoken | |
And I live with the fear that my spirit will be broken | |
And that's the way I thought it would be | |
That's the way I always wanted it to be. | |
So I'll keep you wondering what time I'm arriving | |
And you'll drive me crazy with your backseat driving | |
And I'll talk in my sleep and you'll steal all the covers | |
We'll argue it out and we'll call ourselves lovers | |
And I'll stay in my body and you'll stay in your own | |
'Cause we know that we're born and we're dying alone. | |
So we turn out the light while the sirens are screaming | |
And we kiss for the waking, and then join the dreaming. | |
In love, but not at peace | |
In love, but not at peace. |
