I look at your face
Dirty as the ground
And I look at your hands
Waving them all around
I feel your chemicals
And all you say is wrecked
About the way I am
About what I protect

And I want to see through
The shadow to the truth
Of what we have to say
I think it's time to pray
My precious love, I'd give you
Everything I had if I only
Had more of myself to give around

Can we beat the noise
Of traffic into dust
The kind we only fear
When feathers fail to trust
You reach out like a claw
To scratch away my face
And lead me to a ghost
A shadowless disgrace

And I wish that I could see
The way you look in blue
The ocean for a dress
The kind I'd sew for you

My precious love, I'd give you
Everything I had if I only
Had more of myself to give around

Baby, baby, crazy things are comin' over you
Why you gotta make me cry
Why you gotta hide and then lie
Maybe, maybe, maybe, we are gonna suffer too much
Until there's nothing else we can touch
Without love burning
