No Selfish Love Lyrics by Rival Boys

Mutual Feelings of Love

2011

It's late and I feel my thoughts go running on
Past rails, past fences, past car doors forming walls
The face of a man of a boy who wanted one
Shines out from a well, from a great height looking on
All summer long
When we were young
All our scores were settled by street-lights coming on
A change in the pace of my racing mind's memories
Gives weight, gives embrace to the thoughts I don't want in me
The face of the ghost of the dream that I want to see
Lies down for the night, closes eyes and waits for me
Asleep by the light of a lamp leaves a fiery dream
Of foxes and sheep, and berries and water wings
The thoughts that my mind wants to share with the memories
That I live when I sleep, when I sleep and am free to dream
The weight of wrong
I'm carrying along
Won't stop my heart from wanting you
No fame, no gun, no power
No name, no lion's growl
No cane, no crutch, no cowl
No grace will bear me through
No song, no sight, no flower
No night, no glance, no howl
No art but selfless love
Will let me truly talk to you
