And it landed on light feet,
and it whispered in my ear
Love spoke of my past as a valuable test
And smiled, and said she who
'Cause you know life is hard,
but now you also know your mind,
So now you're going out to love,
but on your own side this time
Where you still think of famine,
and you still dig up train fare
And you won't mind the wrinkles,
'cause you know how they got there
In love but not at peace.
It felt like a gondola ride,
When you float with the nicknacks,
and you don't hear a sound
Where the fish never lived,
and you don't miss the ground
but I don't think that I will
It's a case of a still life gone cinèma verité
In love but not at peace.
So I'll keep you wondering
And you'll drive me crazy with
And I'll talk in my sleep and
you'll steal all the covers
We'll argue it out and we'll
And I'll stay in my body and you'll
'Cause we know that we're
born and we're dying alone.
So we turn out the light while
And we kiss for the waking,
and then join the dreaming.
In love, but not at peace
In love, but not at peace.
