| [00:21.57] |
All the sickness and the forge |
| [00:24.42] |
And all that's come unwound |
| [00:31.14] |
Under the clock by the casino |
| [00:34.92] |
Outside the lost and found |
| [00:42.51] |
Where you spoke in some strange accent |
| [00:56.64] |
While I just zipped my coat |
| [01:02.25] |
For a walk down through the graveyard |
| [01:06.12] |
Of all I wish I didn't know |
| [01:12.75] |
I wish I'd never known |
| [01:16.44] |
There's no telephone ringing |
| [01:19.80] |
There's no postcards to send |
| [01:23.67] |
And it's not like before |
| [01:31.20] |
When I torched the flag of contempt |
| [01:34.89] |
Still you remind me of a girl |
| [01:36.06] |
That always felt too deep |
| [01:41.16] |
In the stagger and the flail |
| [01:47.70] |
Of blurred vision and memory |
| [01:56.31] |
Well, a promise that is wounded |
| [02:08.34] |
Is a promise nonetheless |
| [02:16.98] |
I only wanted you forever |
| [02:20.16] |
In that august summer dress |
| [02:27.63] |
All the courage and the fear |
| [02:30.63] |
Lord, they're so entwined |
| [03:02.79] |
Like the polished steel of coffins |
| [03:04.53] |
And the swollen breast of time |
| [03:13.20] |
All I'm offering is a gold band |
| [03:17.49] |
But it means so much more |
| [03:28.02] |
Like a heart to religion |
| [03:31.26] |
Or stilts to the floor |
| [03:43.89] |
It means so much more |
| [03:52.56] |
Well, a promise that is wounded |
| [03:56.49] |
Is a promise nonetheless |
| [04:00.57] |
I only wanted you forever |
| [04:03.78] |
In that august summer dress |
