Hungry Lights - The Fence lyrics

From the heart, again I felt beat And the dawn—your smile O' I concede! My revered standing in the expanse To my surprise, a cantered stride Is the proposal that you'd yearned for my embrace And as we lock And as we cite You ached to tell me something Such words merely bounced off My naked ears did not understand My chaos—controlled But contorted by hearsay O' I'm divided! We might have made a treasure weaved in cloth Of the kind that can't be forgotten Like a fire spreading far beyond the shore Such a fierceness was our love You told me all about your pa**ions and your funny dreams -A portrait that was painted in the dark For I was lying on a bed of whispers in my sleep And nothing that you said would stay affix Many hours and days and weeks went by I saw that I could not provide Shall I stay by your side? And as the moonlight shined into the sea The reflection lied, the reflection lies! How I could not spend my whole life like that! How I would despair! I tasted a sip of ambrosia -Waking into divine We might have made a treasure weaved in cloth Of the kind that can't be forgotten Like a fire spreading far beyond the shore Such a fierceness was our love I would not believe such an absurd inception Could test my honor and provoke my pride And just when I'd fenced in my garden The wild grew rampant for me When through black, a fruit I was shown -The seed for my incessant soil O' I had to affirm! I'd sail out before the high tide I need to be the best again! In inquisition for a betterment I wound a rope that slowly thread my way down I was a stitch away from lunacy Splendidly bursting through the shell If I had a choice, I'd surely stay But like a curtain closing on the stage Where else to go but back with the director? Into the blue—into the sea Into a frightened ocean! I would find what would get us by Ride the wings of desire through the fence!
