[00:00.19]My love, she speaks like silence
[00:05.46]Without ideals or violence
[00:09.71]She doesn't have to say she's faithful
[00:13.80]Yet, she's true like ice, like fire
[00:19.83]People carry roses
[00:24.14]Make promises by the hours
[00:28.83]My love, she laughs like the flowers
[00:33.41]Valentines can't buy her
[00:40.05]In dime stores and bus stations
[00:45.48]People talk of situations
[00:49.83]Read books, read deep quotations
[00:53.71]Draw conclusions on the wall
[00:59.18]Some speak of the future
[01:03.73]My love, she speaks softly
[01:07.86]She knows there's no success like failure
[01:12.24]And that failure's no success at all
[01:20.47]Cloak and dagger dangles
[01:25.21]Madams light the candles
[01:29.56]In ceremonies of the horsemen
[01:33.39]Even the pawn must hold a grudge
[01:39.02]Statues made of matchsticks
[01:43.76]Crumble into one another
[01:47.66]My love winks she does not bother
[01:52.16]She knows too much to argue or to judge
[01:59.24]The bridge at midnight trembles
[02:04.42]The country doctor rambles
[02:08.48]Bankers' nieces seek perfection
[02:12.86]Expecting all the gifts that wise men bring
[02:18.31]The wind howls like a hammer
[02:22.70]The night wind blows cold an' rainy
[02:27.14]My love, she's like some raven
[02:31.18]At my window with a broken wing
