There´s no easy answer
None to blame or forgive
Two cripples dancing
To the end we live

I´m not with you not of you
Not with you, not of you
You are soft and young to me
I am the ghost who comes and goes
And I hope I´ll catch you
In the throws of one last look at the wonder
One last look at the wonder

O, God, I love you
And all the past we once knew
Some other love becomes you
Whatever else we come to
I know we could be so happy, baby
If we wanted to be

You are soft and young to me
I am the ghost who comes and goes
I´m hoping that I´ll catch you in the throws
Of one last look at joy that we´ve become

But there´s no easy answer, none to blame or forgive
We were two cripples dancing
To the bitter end we live
I´m not with you, but of you
I´m not with you but of you

O, God, I loved you
And all the past we once knew
Some other love becomes you
Whatever else it comes to
I know we could be so happy, baby
If we wanted to be

We had a birthplace in common
We had separate beds and lives

I´ll just sit here and glow
Break out the oldest pictures
Hand your ruined letters out to dry
We had a birthplace in common
And separate beds and lives
And lives, and lives
I know that we could be so happy, baby
If we wanted to be
I know that we could be so happy, baby
Yeah oh.
