Love Is a Minor Key

Song Love Is a Minor Key
Artist Ed Harcourt
Album Time Of Dust

Lyrics

[00:35.700] Love is like a melody
[00:38.900] It haunts my every memory
[00:43.200] The harmony is dissonant despair
[00:49.800] The orchestra is tuning up
[00:53.300] As doors are swung and swiftly shut
[00:57.200] I think about you more than I can bear
[01:04.500] Love is like a minor key
[01:07.700] A jaded weeping willow tree
[01:11.500] It hooks its claws until the blood is drawn
[01:18.800] The audience is spilling out
[01:22.400] I slip into the busy crowd
[01:25.600] But still your face remains after I’m gone
[01:32.900] I could sleep until the summertime
[01:36.800] Maybe then I’d get the peace of mind
[01:40.300] Cut the wires of my telephone line
[01:47.700] But even in the dead of night
[01:51.200] I toss and turn like a little child
[01:54.720] A heavy heart can never be satisfied
[02:01.600] Love is like a melody
[02:05.100] A fever to the remedy
[02:08.800] I see you like a silent movie star
[02:15.900] If you could step out of the screen
[02:19.200] And wake me from this wretched dream
[02:22.400] But I can only watch you from afar
[02:30.200] I could sleep until the summertime
[02:33.900] Maybe then I’d get the peace of mind
[02:37.700] Cut the wires of my telephone line
[02:44.600] But even in the dead of night
[02:48.300] I toss and turn like a little child
[02:51.800] A heavy heart can never be satisfied
[03:02.900] Love is like a melody
[03:05.800] It may ruin me
[03:09.100] A deafening symphony
[03:12.900] That pulls at the seams
[03:16.700] Trapped in the rhapsody
[03:20.100] That plays the wrong notes
[03:23.800] It’s killing me slowly
[03:27.300] So please let me go
[03:36.900] Don’t let me go
[03:44.100] Please let me go
[03:51.200] Don’t let me go
[03:59.600] Love is like a minor key
[04:03.200] The widow in the cemetery
[04:06.500] Whose make-up leaves a trail upon the ground
[04:13.700] I thought I saw our name in lights
[04:17.250] But that was in a former life
[04:20.910] The song I sing is never sung aloud
[04:28.120] And love is just a melody
[04:31.930] And you will never even make a sound
