Libitina - Something Of A Love Song lyrics

Smile at me for I can't read your mind And your eyes leave too much still unsaid This moment must be correctly met Else we'll live in constant regret I know you hold a torch for another So let's revel under its yearning light And if you leave me now then we'll never know There'll always be a question in your eye A silence of remembrance or penitence Your glance broken too late to tell the lie Of a trust never even tried We'll move around this wavering torch Fleeting promises to keep love out of sight Laugh at the futility of these thoughts Nothing can stop us being burned again We are the bearers of many old flames Let's use them to guide us to bed before they wane And if you leave me then now we'll never know There'll always be a question in your eye A silence of remembrance or penitence Your glance broken too late to tell the lie Of a trust never even tried We can mourn and miss them all we like But it's so unlikely that they'll return There's always too much said and not undone To walk those halcyon paths once again It's simpler just to take my hand in yours And we'll make those mistakes again
