I don't know if I can love you forever
There are cracks in the sky where the rain comes in
I've seen my hands touching you

I am so forgiving

I woke up dreaming beside you

Frightened by something you'd whispered in the night :
"People have died --
Simply by remembering"


The dress you wore that night was like a map of the moon
I traced the lonely rivers

I traced the empty seas
But you were so hard -- so hard to please


If you should ever write a song about me
Don't forget to say how I carried you
Mention my name --

And don't forget the bleeding

I don't think I can love you forever

There are wounds in the sky where the rain comes in
I've seen my hands touching you
Now see them disappearing
