Matrimony II

I only have certainty
When you hold my hand
There's so much I don't understand

Baby, we've been orbiting
Each other helplessly
I guess that I blacked out
But remembered to move my mouth
So much for my vows
More concerned with here and now

No one knows of love that's slow
Held like the longest breath
Or the gentle pull of gravity
That's being unto death
I can't go on living with a spark
That's only flickering
I only want that tenderness
With every moment left

I could never find something better
I even changed my name
By my side in every kind of weather
I'll never be the same
I could never find something better
I even changed my name
By my side in every kind of weather
I'll never be the same

"Come closer," you say
Black cats in the neighbourhood
Aren't necessarily a sign of something
You know me so well
There goes the neighbourhood
Let it all go burning down around us

No one knows of love that's slow
Held like the longest breath
Or the gentle pull of gravity
That's being unto death
I can't go on living with a spark
That's only flickering
I only want that tenderness
With every moment left

To give all
To give all

I could never find something better
I even changed my name
By my side in every kind of weather
I'll never be the same
I could never find something better
I even changed my name
By my side in every kind of weather
I'll never be the same
