lyrics

God loves an honest man
And we all have to meet our maker in the end
And if things aren't quite what I planned
Well nothing much in this life can make sense

But if pain is all you get from life
You soon decide that that's what life's about

We'll flick through my childhood years
Because I never really lived until my teens
I soon found a friend in fear
It was the one thing I was good at, the girls screamed

And if power is all you want from life
Then weakness will attract you

So I'm pleased we had this chance to meet
You know I don't get out that much, I don't have friends
But time's short and experience has taught
That all good things in life come to an end

Once by chance I met the one
You know it's strange she looked a little bit like you
My heart leapt but my soul stayed numb
Somehow I knew exactly what to do

One crack and there's no going back and nothing can distract you
If power is all you want from life
Then weakness will attract you, well

I'm glad that we've had this little chat
You know I don't get out that much, I don't have friends
Your time's short and experience is bought
And the price of life is knowing it's to end

---

Come with me overland to the sea
Where soil becomes sand
Not a face to be seen any place
Just you and me here
Hear gulls cry to see the harbour lights

On the dunes running free with the moon
The warmth of the breeze
In our hair on our skin way out there
The tide coming in
Each wave dies to see the harbour lights

Lying here screwed out of focus
No words could begin to describe
This other life

Here I love you like no one before you
Here I breathe you as if you were air
And I feel you in everything I do
My centre, my lover, my prayer
