lyrics

She walked so lightly I thought she would fade
Into the pale memoried world she had made
And he looked always ahead to her back
And though he would run it was always her back

Shelving their hearts for the sake of the song
Their chords turned to minor in order to just get along
But there was no peace and out in the slow palling light
Were reflected the words she would offer to him every night

“it’s only love and that’s why we can be apart”

Well boys turn to men and the women they love stay the same
Languid and tall and the curve of her breast is the same
Laughing from eyes set to call forth the history of youth
But everything dulls for the man who has danced with the truth

“it’s only love and that’s why we can be apart”
