Led into the rain
By your window pane
Honey I've been waiting for your love

Whalers in the cove
Cradles in the trees
Bugs 'round my knees
But I'm waiting for your love

I recognize some men
One with a heart in his throat
One is holding a coat
They are both waiting for your love

A babe in this scene
Mama, I'm already fifteen
And I'm wrong and I'm mean
And I'm ready for your love

Forget the names that your parents earned
'Till your lungs are empty 'till your body's burned
You will never forget the one stone that you left unturned

Through a thousand eyes
In five hundred heads
A pagan silhouette
Is overshadowed by love in vain

Shoved into the hall
Where all the psalm writers sit
And every single one of them's been hit
By the landmine that is your face

A funeral march
Through red rose and briar
Where there are one million liars
But which one's gonna take your place

Let's string up the past so the past won't last
The midnight door opens - woman I'm just hoping
That you're going to breathe in the fire that is burning me

Towards the painted road
On the wall ahead
I'm stepping over the undead
Their bones broken by the dawn

Haunted by the chill
Of whatever you are
Are you the morning star
Or just the holy ghost of your love

The ice covers the sea
The black angel flees
There's nothing left
There's just you, there's just me

I left a girl back home I don't believe you've met her
She was there through the worst of times but the worst is getting better
There's a nun in the next room over sharpening a knife for me

Everything will be fine
Once this wind unwinds
All's I've got is time
And I'm waiting for your love
