I cannot follow you, my love,
|
you cannot follow me.
|
I am the distance you put between
|
all of the moments that we will be.
|
You know who I am,
|
you've stared at the sun,
|
well I am the one who loves
|
changing from nothing to one.
|
|
Sometimes I need you naked,
|
sometimes I need you wild,
|
I need you to carry my children in
|
and I need you to kill a child.
|
|
You know who I am...
|
|
If you should ever track me down
|
I will surrender there
|
and I will leave with you one broken man
|
whom I will teach you to repair.
|
|
You know who I am...
|
|
I cannot follow you, my love,
|
you cannot follow me.
|
I am the distance you put between
|
all of the moments that we will be.
|
|
You know who I am...
|
