Rufus Wainwright - Ashes lyrics
[Rufus Wainwright - Ashes lyrics]
I'm no Rasputin, you ain't no Rapunzel
I have willingly fallen
And you have cut your own hair
Thought we needed motion
At least until the war kicks in
I go out in the world
With you the last night of the burning flare
Trains will follow trains under the dun
Under the moon
And I do believe that all that
I can do is croon
And I do believe that there was a
Morning that I saw your true love burning
Next to me
But now there's ashes
From exquisite eyelashes
So far away, past the border
Past the turnstyle
And even I know, and I do believe
And I do believe that there was a morning
I saw your true love burning next to me
But now there's ashes
From exquisite eyelashes
So far away, past the border
Past the turnstyle
Sometimes I wonder if it is true humility
For this humiliation
Walking in the twilight
Walking in the crows of day
From this station of passion, I go
I have willingly fallen
And you have cut your own hair
Thought we needed motion
At least until the war kicks in
I go out in the world
With you the last night of the burning flare
Trains will follow trains under the dun
Under the moon
And I do believe that all that
I can do is croon
And I do believe that there was a
Morning that I saw your true love burning
Next to me
But now there's ashes
From exquisite eyelashes
So far away, past the border
Past the turnstyle
And even I know, and I do believe
And I do believe that there was a morning
I saw your true love burning next to me
But now there's ashes
From exquisite eyelashes
So far away, past the border
Past the turnstyle
Sometimes I wonder if it is true humility
For this humiliation
Walking in the twilight
Walking in the crows of day
From this station of passion, I go
