Lyrics

Welcome to my living. Sit down while I undo my trimmings. It's cold out, I'm glad you came by. How did you recognise me? Last night I saw Annie. Like you, she was oh very pretty. Dark eyes, her name is Frank, now. She died in 1945, in the year of the night. They say you come just like an ocean. Come slay me and shame not my death. Rise above the abyss into the open at the right moment. There is hot. There is cold. There is good and there is evil. If you look long enough, there goes God, and here's the Devil. Excuse me for asking, but how did you get in? "There's a hole in your heart, that's how I got in." Some days, I don't remember what it's like to be alive and free. Love is the fountain for an honest life. Honour, the bridge between love and strife. Show me the man that I was supposed to be. He escapes me. Are you leaving now, my secret love? Take me with you in my sleep to the stars above. Hold me in your arms and let me feel your charm. How I want to be alive and free.
