To Love (a Love That Gets Away) lyrics

Held up the wine In the bottle With a shoe On the blanket on the lawn Flirted it out Thinking about Celebrating Gonna havoc with you Honing in on heaven Had to veer away Words are failing For a fallible cage Wish to Wish to wish things could stay That's the best you can do In this slippery state That's the price you pay When you play the game To love is to love a love That will get away Time betrays Gives nothing it wont take To love is to love a love That will get away Another stanza Another stab at You're a foreign land I'm a panzer tank Time is dripping Let's condensate I want to know you When the surprises are few You're gonna be there Balanced on the slope I'm your rescue You're my rock and rope That's the price you pay When you play the game To love is to love a love That will get away Time betrays Gives nothing it wont take To love is to love a love That will get away
