I pace the length of my unmade room. In times of change. My bags are packed, guess I'm leaving the womb. Into the rain. . We never found. A place to hide.
Mary cries out: "for the love of God". As she's walking out of the laundromat. Down the street and it's the short way home. Feeling special cause she's so alone.
We sit and watch umbrellas fly. I'm trying to keep my newspaper dry. I hear myself say. "My boat's leaving now". So we shake hands and cry. Now I must wave goodbye, wave goodbye.

My breath was coming fast. And as I make a start. You turn to go, oh, oh. I'll do what you want me to. I'll cry at the thought of the loss of a heart.
I watch my love, she's sleeping. The air around her deepened. Tomorrow she will smile again. Tomorrow she'll get wild again. . My love. And the moon. Take your time.
Don't be afraid. It's a harmless moon. All we can do. Is to assume. . Our lives must change. A change is due. I hear you say. What are we going to do.
Sometimes it leaves me with fear. Never saw the horizon this near. Look to the left then to the right. I tuck you in and kiss you goodnight. . See there is something I know.
I've fixed my dwelling for the night. Lights in pairs come passing by. where I hide. I need some time now on my own. Leave my loneliness alone. To lick my wounds.
I never saw sunlight. Burn as bright. I never felt darkness. The way I feel it tonight. . You say it's getting better. You say it's alright. But I never felt darkness.
One time, to know that it's real. One time, to know how it feels. That's all.. One call, your voice on the phone. One place, a moment alone. That's all..
With all our goals and destinations.... Everything must be this way. Vague are hopes. That try our patience. Listen now to what I say. . Oh, lie down in darkness.
Come on say after me. I'm happy, happy as can be. Hip, hip hooray. Slowly learning that life is okay. Say after me. I ain't no better to be safe than sorry.
We're going to go downtown. I hear this great new place has opened up. And when we get there, I don't know. It's taking ages, don't you know. . How long, how long.
I went down to the water. Like a lamb to the slaughter. And didn't know what was waiting for me there. . Nobody warned me. Nobody told me. My excuse is I wasn't prepared.
It wasn't the rain that washed away. Rinsed out the colors of your eyes. Putting the gun down on the bedside table. I must have realized. . It wasn't the rain that made no difference.
Give it up for rock and roll. Give it up for rock. Give it up for how it made you feel. . Give it up for vinyl days. Kicking back from school. Turn it up to make it real sweet.
It wasn't the rain that washed away. Rinsed out the colors of your eyes. Putting the gun down on the bedside table. I must have realized. . It wasn't the rain that made no difference.
I won't forget her. She was once my love. I won't forget her. She was once my love. . When I hold you in my arms. Oh yeah. You know I'll let you come to no harm.
To hold me close or set me free. To trust completely or let it be. You don't know my destiny. You can't see what I can see. . Hey, I wish I cared. Hey, I wish I cared.
