Intro

Verse

we sleep together while all around us

peo-ple kill each other where they lie

they lie together till they find someone better

try and negotiate that slow de-mise

Verse

but I just can't credit that type of effort for a

piece of nothing on the edge of a knife

sli-ces you so thin you dry like sheets in the wind

hold a candle behind through you see the light

I want the song I can sing for-ever I don't

care for structure just to know it's mine

Badd2 `

I'd hate to see this thing we've developed be-

come your burden or my waste of

RE-INTRO:

Verse

the afternoon can bring with it shallow moods but

I'd jump a harbour wall to clear your mind

I quarter the years you drop the sails till we're clear

I'll look for reefs you map the stars in the night

Verse

and his-tory tells us of worlds we'll know nothing of

then retro-spect becomes a shackle tight on

the ankles of us so in the future we trust

we cross our fingers like some kids telling lies

Badd2 `

I wan-na know that I know what I'm talking about

until I do well all the walls seem white

Badd2 `

but when I'm sure that I know what I'm talking about

I'll take your burden if you'll say it's
