Cold, misty evening
I watched you walking up the path
Up to our front door
Your footsteps in the grass
We've been here before
You out there while I'm stuck in here
Looking out from the bedroom
With a crack in the glass
So Priscilla, this is important
Trying to tell us this is a war
No goodbyes and no time for mourning
Now we'll see what this love is for
I believe in springtime
I believe in dead leaves in the wind
And I know that endings
Are the best place to begin
When I watched you coming
And I saw you brush up against the ferns
All I could think of was
If they're wet, will they ever burn?
So Priscilla, this is important
Trying to tell us this is a war
No goodbyes and no time for mourning
Now we'll see what this love is for
What's it for?
What's it for?
What's it for?
There in the blue moonlight
I stopped and turned toward the ocean
You were so still standing
Wondered if you would ever turn around
Cold misty evening
I watched you walking up the path
Up to our front door
Your footsteps in the grass
I could see you thinking
And I had a notion that wasn't good
But you put your boot on the first step
I could hear the creak in the wood
So Priscilla, this is important
Trying to tell us this is a war
No goodbyes and no time for mourning
Now we'll see what this love is for
What's it for?
What's it for?
What's it for?
So Priscilla this is important
(What's it for?)
Trying to tell us this is a war
(What's it for?)
No goodbyes and no time for mourning
(What's it for?)
Now we'll see what this love is for
So Priscilla this is important
(What's it for?)
Trying to tell us this is a war
(What's it for?)
No goodbye's and no time for mourning
(What's it for?)
Time to see what this love is for
