[00:04.21]My love she speaks like silence
[00:08.21]Without ideals or violence
[00:12.21]He doesn't have to say he's faithful
[00:15.21]Yet he's true, like ice, like fire
[00:20.21]People carry roses
[00:24.21]And make promises by the hours
[00:28.21]My love he laughs like the flowers
[00:31.21]Valentines can't buy her
[00:38.21]In the dime stores and bus stations
[00:42.21]People talk of situations
[00:45.21]Read books, repeat quotations
[00:50.21]Draw conclusions on the wall
[00:55.21]Dont speak of the future
[00:59.21]My love he speaks softly
[01:02.21]He knows there's no success like failure
[01:06.21]And that failure's no success at all
[01:13.21]The cloak and dagger dangles
[01:17.21]Madams light the candles
[01:21.21]In ceremonies of the horsemen
[01:25.21]Even the pawn must hold a grudge
[01:30.21]Statues made of match sticks
[01:34.21]Crumble into one another
[01:38.21]My love winks, he does not bother
[01:42.21]He knows too much to argue or to judge
[02:22.21]The bridge at midnight trembles
[02:27.21]The country doctor rambles
[02:32.21]Bankers' nieces seek perfection
[02:35.21]Expecting all the gifts that wise men bring
[02:42.21]The wind howls like a hammer
[02:45.21]The night blows rainy
[02:49.21]My love he's like some raven
[02:54.21]At my window with a broken wing
