lyrics

Melon, cured ham and fine wine.
Elegant are the cuffs, and a modern design.
The night unwinds with silent rules refined.
It's too divine.

In the garden in silvery moonlight,
Leading never a doubt into our young minds,
A well-worn glint of stolen steel
And a sharpened mind.

Leaving dark prints on dewy grass.
Breathing bracing night air in,
Exhale, in advance, the sin.
I could have chosen any of these
Corn-starched, crumpled enemies
But, my Lord, please tell me,
How could I choose anyone but you?

Candles shine on crystalline
Glasses sticky with fortified wine.
Lovers splinter, men group in hazy
Rooms, while ladies vie and report on the night.

In the night air it's easy to look at the lack.
The distance between what you and what I have.
My conscience flashing all the way back
To the gap in the knife rack.

Leaving dark prints on dewy grass.
Breathing bracing night air in,
Exhale, in advance, the sin.
I could have chosen any of these
Corn-starched, crumpled enemies
But, my Lord, please tell me,
How could I choose anyone but you?
