Sweet Morphine |
| Oh my darling, you are the restless sea. |
| With your black heart raging over me. |
| Has the blue sky seen the same trouble as we? |
| Tell me true, my love, the restless sea. |
| There are three things never satisfied… |
| The grave, your heart, and mine. |
| But I will hold you in my arms, where rust and sorrow lie |
| Underneath the bounding main tonight. |
| And by now, you must’ve found better than me… |
| I’m sure Jupiter and Orpheus have charmed you off your feet. |
| By now, I’m sure you’ve gotten over me. |
| While you’re kissing clouds and gods, I’ll be crawling on my knees. |
| Sweet morphine. |
| Sweet morphine. |
| And yes, I’ve come to know you are the endless night. |
| High above my love, and the constellation light. |
| Waving your fingertips of sleep over the dark on the face of the deep. |
| Endless night, I know you well, indeed. |
| By now, you must’ve found better than me… |
| I’m sure Jupiter and Orpheus have charmed you off your feet. |
| By now, I’m sure you’ve gotten over me. |
| While you’re kissing clouds and gods, I’ll be crawling on my knees. |
| Sweet morphine. |
| Sweet morphine. |
| By now, you must’ve found better than me… |
| I’m sure Jupiter and Orpheus have charmed you off your feet. |
| Oh, by now, I’m sure you’ve gotten over me. |
| While you’re kissing clouds and gods, I’ll be crawling on my knees. |
| Sweet morphine. |
| Sweet morphine. |
