Desdemona Lyrics

I can't say I would die for you

I just don't want to die

And sometimes I'm impatient

These things I can't deny

And I can't say I can change for you

I can't force the wind to blow

But I love you, Desdemona

More than you could ever know

I'd say I'd never hurt you

But who am I trying to kid?

I can't predict the future

Or take back what I did

I can't even reveal the things

I want so bad to show

But I love you, Desdemona

More than you could ever know

The ships roll in and out again

And you meet them right on cue

And I won't pretend to understand

The reason that you do

But I can't be some monkey

With a basket and a bow

Still I love you, Desdemona

More than you could ever know

Look at all the angels lying in the snow

Are they dying, are they being born?

Does it matter if we know?

Sometimes I can't remember

Sometimes I can't forget

I'd say I love you forever

But forever ain't happened yet

I didn't even know your touch

Not so very long ago

But I love you, Desdemona

More than you could ever know
