Plastic Paperbacks |
| Once I had money but now I’m so far from home |
| Once I was loved by a woman but now there’s nothing but cold stone |
| I was hard, man but what was there to understand? |
| Along that wind, were you searching for the start of sin? |
| Journeys taken in search of that terrible eye |
| Turned over horizons under which no sun wants to lie |
| But that trust which comes into the thick of it |
| I got that back with a stack of plastic paperbacks |
| But to love you, oh, to love you |
| But to love you, oh, to love you |
| One by one I pressed those letters in your hand |
| Like a Gutenberg Bible burning at midnight on the sand |
| You’ve been up, held where innocence has never dwelled |
| But that’s all right, there’s a Bible burning giving light, oh |
| But to love you, oh, to love you |
| But to love you, oh, to love you |
| We’ve got all night to stare into the anthracite |
| The cold black flame, we’ve been burning plastic paperbacks again, oh |
| Ooh, oh |
