There's a shamed look in your eyes
Wasn't there before, I'd know
Different than the venial or trite
A flash of silver on the lake
Broke a calm so deeply known
It left a chasm wider than the sea
It killed the dinosaurs and put two buckles in the knees
A doleful wind through Douglas pleading, “Go, go, please go
I wish you wouldn't go, go, please go. ”
I only wish you'd never tried to hide
What's obvious and evidently so
There's something else I have to know
If I'm to carry on
If you were merciful you'd answer it
What do I have to do to kill this love?
