There were moments, precious moments
I could feel it in my fingers and my toes
And I still feel her closely wrapped up
My tired arms don't let me let her go

And when she said goodbye there was a funeral
Inside my heart for everything beautiful
Love's sweet song was singing in my soul
Lately I feel like an animal
Spiraling just like a cannonball
Love's sweet song was singing in my soul
But love's sweet song don't sing to me no more

There were seconds, perfect seconds
When I'd quietly let go of all my fears
When I'd let her, I'd let her see me
At my worst her voice was all I'd hear

And when she said goodbye there was a funeral
Inside my heart for everything beautiful
Love's sweet song was singing in my soul
Lately I feel like an animal
Spiraling just like a cannonball
Love's sweet song was singing in my soul
But love's sweet song don't sing to me no more

Oh, and you were the sound of my afternoon
Oh, and I, I can't live
People walking hand in hand into the promise land
And here I am with just regrets and broken chords I stand

And when she said goodbye there was a funeral
Inside my heart for everything beautiful
Love's sweet song was singing in my soul
Lately I feel like an animal
Spiraling just like a cannonball
Love's sweet song was singing in my soul
But love's sweet song don't sing to me no more
