Our Love Lyrics - The Instigator - Rhett Miller

Our Love 

Richard Wagner's letters to his lover Mathilde were a mess 

He should have quit before he had written the address 

They made love on the mezzanine her husband was his friend 

Vienna in a fugue-state working on a thing 

That when he finished it took almost seven hours to sing 

He still found time to write to her his heart-exploding words 

Our love surpassed our love so fast 

Our love's all wrong our love goes on and on 

Our love became our love by name when I wrote it to you in a song 

Our love goes on and on 

Our love our love 

Kafka in his letters to his lover Milena was alive 

But he was waiting for a love that never would arrive 

Their rendezvous was singular her husband was his friend 

She is a living fire she is a reason to live 

She is killing me burning only for him 

I'll spend my whole life loving her my heart exploding words 

Our love surpassed our love so fast 

Our love's all wrong our love goes on and on 

Our love became our love by name when I wrote it to you in a song 

Our love goes on and on 

Our love our love our love our love 

Our love surpassed our love so fast 

Our love's all wrong our love goes on and on 

Our love became our love by name when I wrote it to you in a song 

Our love goes on and on our love our love 

Our love our love our love our love our love
