Straw Dogs - Something to Love Lyrics

You arrive with absolutes
And I keep showing up with only questions
You resemble something finished with a careful hand
I crumble like sand
Is there a place on your immaculate machine
Where these broken hands might cling a little longer?

For I am nothing more
Than what you see right here
So might I help you justify your fear

CHORUS:
That there's still left something to love in me
There's still left something to love in me

An electric light, you shine and hum
Me I'm only one undying candle
You're the pillar on the mount
Yet somehow I need so much careful handling
Oh, but you're still the one that sparks in me
The only flame I ever care to feel

So in that deep reservoir
Of everything you are
Is my reflection ever strong enough to see?

CHORUS

I am the alchemy of diamond to stone
Then you go and you turn it all back again
The glare of you pulls my head and my heart
Together, that we never should part

CHORUS
