----------------------

My love is white. My love is alive

It's not anything that's gone or is yet to arrive

It's not some wild drug. It's not the cage

Nor is it a computer preset of this day and age



Don't deceive me

Take me or leave me



It's raining outside like many times before

There's a leak in my roof and I don't care anymore

It drips from the ceiling like the life from my soul

For we climbed great heights

And now we've taken a great fall



Don't deceive me

Take me or leave me



There's a photo on the table and it wears my face

I'm filled with sadness but it doesn't show a trace

Baby can't you tell that there is something wrong

Oh won't you please take out this thorn



Don't deceive me

Take me or leave me

She loves me/She loves me not

One day cold/The next day hot

She loves me/She loves me not



Now, I'm not like anything that you haven't seen

I can't be like that man in the magazine

I don't have a subscription or the clothes to match

Nor do I need a submissive woman that comes attached



Don't deceive me

Take me or leave me

She loves me/She loves me not

One day cold/The next day hot

She loves me/She loves me not



Now I've said everything that is to be said

And I found that it's useless to plead with the dead

I could say a prayer that we might not live alone

Then again, I could comb my hair, but I lost my comb

Don't go walking away through that danger zone

You might not see me follow you back home



Don't deceive me

Take me or leave me

She loves me/She loves me not

One day cold/The next day hot

She loves me/She loves me not
