For you my love, for you my love For you my love, for you my love So barricade the doors and stop the heart That you've been holding And throw the words you hold so dear From the letter you've been softly folding When they finish boarding up the house There'll be nothing left to see, oh to see Just a stranger taking his last breath Upon the guillotine Your neighbors they were fighters But they hung the man you killed Before the sins had left their hands Their bodies were fulfilled Where the wings that sting the borderline Words fall softly to the floor A woman's love can cause a man to spill his every flaw On you my love, on you my love On you my love, on you my love Does your heart beat so softly without warning? And does it beat out to the slow pace of the morning? When you close your eyes after all that you see, that you see Will you let the strangers be? The train it hits the railroad and it cowers under flies It's painted by a man itself so it doesn't creep it cries You have seen the passageway But you trembled at the start, oh at the start You have always seen the strangers play And let them frolic with your heart And it's another chance to make amends But they dabble with your code You're lost without a wolf or beast To stop you in the road And he's sitting quietly in his cell And counting down its stones Well, a woman with your kind of heart will always be alone Well, a woman with your kind of heart will always be alone With him my love love, with my love With him my love, my love, my love With him my love Does your heart beat so softly without warning? And does it beat out to the slow pace of the morning? Oh, when you close your eyes after all that you see, that you see Will you let the strangers be? Will you let the strangers be? For you my love, for you my love, my love For you my love, always for you my love
