I don't know if I can love you forever
There are cracks in the sky where the rain comes in
I've seen my hands touching you
I am so forgiving
I woke up dreaming beside you
Frightened by something you'd whispered in the night :
"People have died --
Simply by remembering"
The dress you wore that night was like a map of the moon
I traced the lonely rivers
I traced the empty seas
But you were so hard -- so hard to please
If you should ever write a song about me
Don't forget to say how I carried you
Mention my name --
And don't forget the bleeding
I don't think I can love you forever
There are wounds in the sky where the rain comes in
I've seen my hands touching you
Now see them disappearing
