It was the hour you confidences to a stranger It seemed I'd become nearly enough to think of another person's trouble And we fellow strangers, then It was the hour you make to a stranger Tell me all secrets, tell me Tell me all secrets, tell 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 favourite And I thought to myself, I remember, this is what hope feel Standing at the other end of your favourite year, you That when you posses a thing securely, you need use it back and let go, hold back and let go, let go Hold back and let go, back and let go, let go Despair can always an answer, and despair asks 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, That man is at me On a trip to the bookstore or just sit for awhile in the park man is waving at me, that man is looking at me (Hold back and let go, hold 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 and let go, hold back and let go, let go) (Hold back and let go, back and let go, let go) And name will dampen every mood of happiness or fun or with its reminder that love dies, and afternoon and Habit 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 confidences to a stranger (so good) It I'd become nearly human enough to think of another person's trouble (so good) And we were strangers, then (so good) It was the hour you make confidences to a (so good) I discovered I measured love by the extent of my jealousy Did I get it It was though our love were a creature caught in a And to death, I had to my eyes and wring it's neck (Would you it was love 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) Tell me all secrets, tell me Tell me all secrets, tell me be watching, believe me, will you talk to me? It was the you make confidences to a stranger (I it wrong) Would you it was love and not lust? How strange too and to think that one had been loved, That presence had once had the power to make a difference Between happiness and in another's day? Would you rather it was and not lust? (Tell me, tell me all secrets, tell me, me all your secrets, tell me) And as you carry on with the dance of exposure and You hold back and let go, back and let go, Hold and let go, let go Hold back and let go, hold and let go, let go And you can justify it in any way to make feel better, And you try to think about different ways that you can it so you can feel a better. (Hold back and let go, hold and let go, let go)
