Lyrics
You're the nose of my bullet
The trigger on my gun
You're the sandbank in the ocean
Oxygen in my blood
You're the fastest of the fish
You're the prickliest pear
You're a chameleon in the night
You're the Sahara's sun glare
You're my mind's rest
You're the strings on my guitar
You're the wax in my mustache
The keys to my car
You're the magical mermaid's
Hollowed illusion
You cool them, fool them
And they hope so much
And you let them down
And you watch from your rock
And your heart beats fast
And you watch theirs stop
I will keep on loving
'Cause I believe in love
I don't mind dying
If you follow me up
Your victory's your defeat
Your head above your heart
Only the brave surrender
Death cannot tear us apart
Death cannot tear us apart
Death cannot tear us apart
Death cannot tear us apart
Well, my smile is wider
Than yours when we meet
And the winter is colder
For me underneath
And I know that you glow
From the inside out
You can keep it for yourself
And I'll go without
You are the fire
And I'm the chimney
You'll burn away
And I'll choke on your memory
All the words, my sense
You're the poet to my pen
You're the dream that brings
The morning sadness
Start the day storm in my head
You're the Oscar Wilde
Short stories in my bookcase
You're positively fourth street
Isolated in my iTunes
You're the word in the dictionary
That I can't spell
Can't describe, can't put in a sentence
But use all the time
Your own pair of trousers
Look better on me
The boots of Spanish leather
And the bottom of the sea
Every symbol of love
That doesn't relate to a meaning
Every feeling, every sensation
Only real when I'm dreaming
I will keep on loving
'Cause I believe in love
I don't mind dying
If you follow me up
Your victory's your defeat
Your head above your heart
Only the brave surrender
Death cannot tear us apart
Wild horses in the wilderness
With no journey home
Well, my love is locked in chains
Oh, the lion walks alone
Well, the lion he walks alone
Nature is cruel
But he knows it's his home
He to his demons
And your you to your own
Oh, please let me stand by you
And I'll conquer them all
Oh, I, I will conquer them all
Oh, I, I will conquer them all
Oh, I, I will conquer them all
Oh, I, I will conquer them all
