And being outside your wisdom And stretching the truth I was the oil and lavender But never for you
You had to toil and sit in The sun browned your skin It burned all the alabaster Till the ask choked the wind
They say it's the longest light To ever have shown They say it's the longest lie And that nobody knows They say it's the longest lie And I still taste the smoke
Now only ungrateful remember (?) To sleep in the stone With all of your grace and thunder The roll and the boom
I was the cloak and dagger That snuck into you And we have but one (left? /life?) finger That's pointing at us
And that would be the longest night That chilled ___ to bone That would be the longest night To sleep here alone That would be the longest night I think you'd be warmer closer to me
