Lyrics to Love's Wake
Love's Wake Video:
love it was dying in a hospital room the smell of disinfectant it's only perfume and no one came to visit love there in its final hours no one wrote love letters no one sent it flowers like they used to back when love was young now the honeymoon was over but still love hung on and all that was killing love they say, was neglect but love had no illusions it knew what to expect the doctor's prognosis left little doubt that love was on it's way out you and i we came to visit love to see what we could do love didn't even recognize us for a minute or two then the fog lifted and love put on a brave smile said "pull up them two chairs you two and sit with me a while there are things i want to tell you things you should know so you two fools can get along with each other when i go you got to be careful now avoid heated conversations don't throw your weight around child you gotta learn patience there's still a slim chance that i may recover but if i don't you both know you'll find other lovers and friendship will remain don't shake your head like that friendship been a better friend to you than i ever have" love it died at four o'clock this morning you were sleeping in your chair when i woke up yawning to see love lying there finally at peace and i cried and felt release and the only consolation at that moment then was knowing you and i were here together with love to the end you and i here together to the end
