Song for Zula

歌詞

Some say love is a burning thing, that it makes a fiery ring Oh but I know love as a fading thing Just fickle as a feather in a stream See honey, I saw love, you see it came to me It put its face up to my face so I could see Yeah, then I saw love disfigure me Into something I am not recognizing You see the cage it called; I said ‘come on in’ I will not open myself up this way again I lay my face to the soil, and all my teeth to the sand I will not lay like this for days now upon end You will not see me fall, or see me struggle to stand To be acknowledged by some touch from his gnarled hand You see the cage it called; I said ‘come on in’ I will not open myself up this way again You see the moon is bright in that treetop night I see the shadows that we cast in the cold clean light Now my feet are gold, and my heart is white And we race out on the desert plains all night See honey, I am not some broken thing I do not lay here in the dark waiting for thee No my heart is gold and my feet are light And I am racing out on the desert plains all night Some say love is a burning thing, that it makes a fiery ring Oh but I know love as a caging thing Just a killer, come to call from some awful dream Ah and all you folks, you come to see You just stand there in the glass looking at me But my heart is wild and my bones are steam And I could kill you with my bare hands if I was free
