Love And Treachery |
| I put on my gloves tonight, pull onto the road to San Berdu |
| They remind me of hustlers, confidence, men and you |
| My hands are warm beneath them and easy on the wheel |
| Without your love and treachery the calm is all I feel |
| I shiver in the mirror, pull my belt across my hips |
| The leather’s hard in bending as your fingers to my lips |
| I wrap it tightly in defense as if your arms were near |
| But for your love and treachery there’s nothing left to fear |
| I’ll take a glass of wine and recall the words you spoke |
| From the bottom of your cup, covered in spit and smoke |
| But in your voice I’ll hear my own and recognize the crime |
| That all your love and treachery has ended up as mine |
| I see you in the rear view with just a passing glance |
| How your eyes shine as if through mine, you’d see and understand |
| As if we’d played each other but never knew the score |
| And all was love and treachery but isn’t anymore |
| That all was love and treachery but isn’t anymore |
