I Wanted Your Heart

I wanted your heart
for the last time
I want to be in your bed
I want your words
to colour all that's been said
"I will love you when the devil is blind"
I wanted your heart
you didn't want mine

This is as close as I get
as I ever get
falling for things
I never thought
I'd find myself
falling for
as close as I get
Old ladies on the pavement
in the dense and empty hours
all as hard as nails
and brittle as pressed flowers
I was cold at an equally cold place
a cigarette between the flame and my face
you were laughing
like the goon squad in my heart

This is as close ...

I wanted your heart

What do you think about
what I think about!
truths that are lies
when you spell them out
don't worry
don't betray the slightest emotion
yes I know
it's a separate emotion
As close as I get
