lyrics

Some dumb poet may say
That the stars are gone, the leaves withdrawn,
The trees were green
But now they're turning brown.
They're all turning brown.
All that I can say is
What is wrong?
You leave me alone too long.
I need to see you
If I'm to be strong in love.
To be strong.

Okay I'll say it. Okay I'll say it.
I don't want to say it but
Okay I'll say it.
Take love away
If it's meaningless
To stay that way.
Mean what you say
Or you just
Take your love away my love.

Because your words
Make a sound.
A noise until the abstract's bound.
An empty gong
Until compounded with passion
And your attendant passion
Is gone.
What is wrong?

I hold in my hand
This old note you wrote
It says, "I love you true,
Forever yours.
I'll see you soon my love."
Soon my love.
Soon, but never now.
Soon, but never now.
I don't see how
This old script with no direction makes it.
I'll take my bows
Before the rhetoric of love
Breaks me down.
It breaks me down.

Some dumb poet
He may say
That the stars are gone.
All that I can say is
What is wrong.
What is wrong?
