The angels are weeping again

For the heart will wander

where the flesh will lead

Is conscience really no more

than the fear of being caught?

Do you hate yourself for loving me? For loving me

I toss and I turn on this bed of nails

'cos the pills ain't working

The silence roars like a monstruous ocean

And only the shallow breathing of you

lying next to me

Brings me any comfort

It's you, only you, there's only you

and you alone

It's only ever you

It's only through betrayal

I have found my way back home to you

I've just heard you breathe

my name in your sleep

Or is that just wishful thinking

wishful thinking

'Cos there's lots of sad words

that sound just like my name

And God only knows

how many devils visit you in your slumber

The sky is black, even the moon has abondoned us

Tonight smells of jasmine and fallen stars

Oh how the reflex always betrays

It's you, only you, there's only you

and you alone

It's only ever you

There are appetites I'd long thought sated

Impulse and desire I'd long thought abated

Until I'm one with you again

I wanna feel all the hurt and pain

I wanna feel the burning shame

I wanna take all the curses and the blame
