The Concubine

Within A wilderness of stars But for the absence of flowers You know that nothing will change How Gracious you were Is how gracious I'll be At the top of the hour when They pass her to me Takes her place on my knee We'll be something to see Look out Not careful You'll be smothered by lust Enticed by rocks Scraped barren by wait My love Is slowly transforming to hate Within A wilderness of stars But for the absence of flowers You know that nothing will change There's still no one who calls There's still nothing to see Though there's something for me Look out Not careful You'll be smothered by lust Enticed by rocks Scraped barren by wait My love Is slowly transforming to hate Feel it now it's a fading sensation I never knew which doors you've strayed through You settle just like dust that's been landing on me Within A wilderness of stars How lucky we are That there's nothing between All the ones we can see Though there's nothing for you There's always something for me
