It was the hour you confidences to a stranger It seemed I'd become nearly human enough to think of another person's And we fellow strangers, then It was the hour you make to a stranger me all your secrets, tell me Tell me all your secrets, me I believe it you but I can keep a promise (tell me) So tell me, tell me all secrets The day is so full of it might make you feel better It was one of my years It was my year And I thought to myself, I remember, is what hope feel like Standing at the end of your favourite year, you remember That when you posses a thing securely, you need use it Hold back and let go, back and let go, let go back and let go, hold back and let go, let go Despair can always produce an answer, and despair me now "Would you rather it was love and not you rather it was love and not lust?" In cafes, on sidewalks, that man is at me, man is waving at me On a trip to the or just sit down for awhile in the park That man is at me, that man is looking at me (Hold and let go, hold back and let go, let go) To lie flat, to be down upon (Hold and let go) Your weight, legs, your breath, your... your... your... (Hold back and let go, hold and let go, let go) (Hold back and let go, back and let go, let go) And that name will dampen every mood of or fun or Exhilaration with its reminder that love dies, and and with the day So good... so good... so good... Say it, say it, say it, say it, say it, so good... It was the hour you make confidences to a (so good) It seemed I'd nearly human enough to think of another person's trouble (so good) And we were strangers, then (so good) It was the hour you confidences to a stranger (so good) I discovered that I measured love by the of my jealousy Did I get it It was though our love were a caught in a trap And to death, I had to shut my and wring it's neck (Would you rather it was and not lust?) Did I get it Did I get it Did I? Did I get it (Would you rather it was and not lust? Yes) me all your secrets, tell me Tell me all secrets, tell me I'll be watching, believe me, you talk to me? It was the hour you make confidences to a (I it wrong) Would you rather it was love and not How strange too and unfamilliar to think one had been loved, That presence had once had the power to make a difference Between and dullness in another's day? Would you rather it was and not lust? (Tell me, me all your secrets, tell me, Tell me all secrets, tell me) And as you carry on with the dance of and camouflage You hold and let go, hold back and let go, back and let go, let go Hold and let go, hold back and let go, let go And you can justify it in any way to make feel better, And you try to about different ways that you can justify it so you can a little better. (Hold back and let go, back and let go, let go)
