the slowest night

the slowest dance

you sway across the room as in a dream

an empty house with empty rooms

i loved you so

and now you're going



go, and leave if you must know

and go, i never wanted you to know

go



we ran away

or so we thought

now i know you were told to

go

to know love

to show love

and go

to give love

to feel loved

and go



i fell asleep

washed up on the shore

i kiss my soul and priest deformed

you move to speak

no words could reach me

at one, once knew



go, love, and learn by your desire

and know love

you're the only reason why



i'm terrified to go

to know love

to show love

go

to give love

to feel loved

go

to know love

to show love

i'm begging you to go
