lyrics

I only want the roses to soften the wine
She never supposes you'll reach me in time
But hear how they hearken and see how they shine
And you're striking bargains while I'm standing in line

I only want the water to make up the weight
Her innocence taught her it's never too late
But feel how it's sharpened and taste how they cry
And you'll never be pardoned so you'll never try

I only want the colors to bring out the grays
You tether the trawlers and pick up the strays
But the two broken vases are crying out loud
You're just looking for faces that fall from the clouds

While I'm gone she keeps circling 'round me
Sleeping soundly on

I only want the open because I can't stand the closed
It's less than you were hoping but what she supposed
But the longest of chases and the grandest of schemes
Are lost without traces from the sweetest of dreams
