Love and Loss and Love Lyrics

[ti:Love and Loss and Love]

Love and Loss and Love - Lydia Cole

...

There are a million reasons why this should work ?

So, like a fire, this season’s gonna hurt ?

As you look away these eyes begin to burn?

Yeah, for a long long night I twist and turn

Discovering things, quite plain, unseen before ?

Drinking in water not for sale in stores?

To be with or without you,

I cannot afford?

Under this heat I twist and change my form

And these are the tales of love and loss and love

We are a weary field of flowers crushed

And we are all children without a dad or mum

We are all looking for our descending dove

So unscrew your hinges, scrape away the moss?

This is the day that love will follow loss ?

And with trumpets and harps, give your chains a final toss ?

We will not fold to bribes of candy floss?

Or to boys who don’t even care about us

And these are the tales of love and loss and love

We are a weary field of flowers crushed

And we are all children without a dad or mum

We are all looking for our descending dove
