Oh love how long
Love how long
How long
Oh love how long
Love how long
How long
Oh please don't give me what I want
And protect me from the quake to come
My dear I know the hounds are near
Oh I'm fickle as a pendulum
I trembled in the winter pale
Wrecked to the depths of my wickedness
And breathless luckless though I am
The heart of a lion inside the lamb
Won't you come for me
Across the line
And hold my heart
If only only only only
Please don't give me what I want
And forsake my basest whim
There come for our embrace by night
And I'm harbouring my sin
Darling you know I'm afraid of leaving
Mornings light bears the cross I stood
And I wish I was good
If only only only only
I could
Won't you come for me
Across the line
And hold my heart
If only only only only
