Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I was once a Sunday kneeler
When I saw the leadlight
Fall from the pane
I didn't know that the grass
Was not only greener
Upkeep is cheaper
When you embrace the rain
So I jumped down to lay
With my leadlight
Under your spotlight
I lay with the shards
And I didn't know that the ground
Was not only harder
Oh but colder
When you are not around
[Verse 2]
I love you my darling, I do
But I can't let possession make a fool of you
I love you my darling, I do
But I can't promise I'll be here
To see this whole love through
[Verse 3]
So I ran with dreams to reach the skyline
Straight up that incline, I ran towards the blue
And I didn't know that the sky
Is not only wider
Oh but clearer
When I'm standing next to you
[Verse 4]
I love you my darling, I do
But I can't let possession make a fool of you
I love you my darling, I do
But I can't promise I'll be here
To see this whole love through
[Verse 5]
Oh, I believe in trust, you see
But don't you go and put your trust in me
I cost more than you earn
So tell me boy, why didn't you ever learn
[Verse 6]
I love you my darling, I do
But I can't let possession make a fool of you
I love you my darling, I do
But I can't promise I'll be here
To see this whole love through
