It's clear to me now
I understand
A jump of cards in
An idle man's hand

Oh, oh, you're sleeping
This is the story of your
Leaving

I can win you with reason
I can make you agree
The way that I love you
It only makes sense that you love me

But down through the sad facts I'm sifting
You did not think this without help from me

I've called a taxi
It's coming at dawn
I said, Send the best one
It's a long, long, lonely ride
To find the perfect lover for your lover
And the morning light's just breaking

(I thought I heard someone screaming outside
But it was only a bus pulling away)

Love is a strange thing
It depends what one gives
And sometimes to give means
Give someone away

Oh, oh, you're sleeping
The same sad pillow
Said you're a-leaving

I move with your breathing
I breathe with your beauty
Your sweet heaviness
Your deep voice, your soft neck
I press my face, did you call me?

It's only the trees outside flailing
It's only the sirens that are a-wailing

Hurry up driver
You're going too slow
Can't you go faster?
It's a long, long, lonely ride
To find the perfect lover for your lover
And the morning light's just breaking
