Lyrics

Love took a long time, it followed me here 
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 loves last loves best 
'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 
In love but not at peace. 

Once for me love was the boat inside of a bottle, 
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 
And the moon hangs above like a Valium pill 
And I say I'll be fine, but I don't think that I will 
But today I got work, and I like it that way 
It's a case of a still life gone cin¨¨ma verit¨¦ 
In love but not at peace 
In love but not at peace. 

And I still need the beauty of words sung and spoken 
And I live with the fear that my spirit will be broken 
And that's the way I thought it would be 
That's the way I always wanted it to be. 

So I'll keep you wondering what time I'm arriving 
And you'll drive me crazy with your backseat driving 
And I'll talk in my sleep and you'll steal all the covers 
We'll argue it out and we'll call ourselves lovers 
And I'll stay in my body and you'll stay in your own 
'Cause we know that we're born and we're dying alone. 
So we turn out the light while the sirens are screaming 
And we kiss for the waking, and then join the dreaming. 
In love, but not at peace 
In love, but not at peace.
