Lover in the salt
Sprinkled in the wound
Lover in the way of ever loving you
Keeper of the gate
Keeper of the truth
Sinner and the saint,
All alone I'll wait for you
Lover in the straw
Howl at the moon
Scratching at your back
Oh what's a lover to do?
Bloody from the fall
Colour me marooned
Colour me in shades of things that lovers do
Do I light a fire in the cold?
Do I ever do things when I'm told?
Should I just forget you and grow old?
Would that be fair?
Or would you feel all alone?
