Momus - Don't Leave lyrics
[Momus - Don't Leave lyrics]
Don't go away if you can't forgive
Believe, just to live you must forget
Forget the times you misunderstand
Let them slip through your hand
With the sand of time forget those hours
When 'perhaps' has died
At the hands of 'why' and our lack of faith
Don't go away don't go away
Don't leave
Me, I'll offer you pearls
Made out of the rain that falls in a world
Where rain never falls
I'll ransack the earth by day and by night
To cover your body with gold and with light
I'll make a domain where love will be king
Love will be everything you'll be the queen
Don't go away don't' go away
Don't leave
Don't go away i'll invent for you
Words just meant for you
And you'll know what's meant
And I'll tell you the truth
About how other lovers
Looked into each other
And how they were moved
Then I'll read to you the story of kings
Who lived without meeting you
Died without knowing you don't go away
Don't' go away don't leave
And just when you think
The volcano's expired the craters turn pink
And the ash turns to fire
In a charred barren land
You can still be surprised
Wheat suddenly stands like a dream of Julys
When the sun sets in a brilliant sky
The black and the red
Never touch as they die don't go away
Don't' go away don't leave
Don't go away i won't cry anymore
I won't talk anymore
I'll crawl under the bed
And I'll watch you from there
As you smile and you dance
And I'll listen to hear
How you talk, when you laugh it's enough
In the shadow of you shadow
In the shadow of your hand
The shadow of your man don't go away
Don't' go away don't leave
Believe, just to live you must forget
Forget the times you misunderstand
Let them slip through your hand
With the sand of time forget those hours
When 'perhaps' has died
At the hands of 'why' and our lack of faith
Don't go away don't go away
Don't leave
Me, I'll offer you pearls
Made out of the rain that falls in a world
Where rain never falls
I'll ransack the earth by day and by night
To cover your body with gold and with light
I'll make a domain where love will be king
Love will be everything you'll be the queen
Don't go away don't' go away
Don't leave
Don't go away i'll invent for you
Words just meant for you
And you'll know what's meant
And I'll tell you the truth
About how other lovers
Looked into each other
And how they were moved
Then I'll read to you the story of kings
Who lived without meeting you
Died without knowing you don't go away
Don't' go away don't leave
And just when you think
The volcano's expired the craters turn pink
And the ash turns to fire
In a charred barren land
You can still be surprised
Wheat suddenly stands like a dream of Julys
When the sun sets in a brilliant sky
The black and the red
Never touch as they die don't go away
Don't' go away don't leave
Don't go away i won't cry anymore
I won't talk anymore
I'll crawl under the bed
And I'll watch you from there
As you smile and you dance
And I'll listen to hear
How you talk, when you laugh it's enough
In the shadow of you shadow
In the shadow of your hand
The shadow of your man don't go away
Don't' go away don't leave
