August & September - THE THE[00:00:00]
Suddenly last summer[00:00:00]
I started going out of my head[00:00:05]
In a tiny hotel room[00:00:10]
Lying naked on a bed[00:00:16]
I knew what you were doing[00:00:22]
And I knew what you'd done[00:00:24]
Your life with me was ending[00:00:27]
Your new life had begun[00:00:30]
But I was cursing your name[00:00:32]
And I was cursing that room[00:00:38]
And I was praying for the strength[00:00:43]
To stop loving you[00:00:49]
I started writing you the letter[00:01:16]
Which turned into the book[00:01:19]
I was gonna reach across the ocean[00:01:22]
And force you to look[00:01:25]
But what kind of man was I[00:01:28]
Who would sacrify you happiness to satisfy his pride[00:01:33]
What kind of man[00:01:39]
Was I[00:01:41]
Who would delay your destiny[00:01:44]
To appease his tiny mind[00:01:47]
Then you came back to me[00:02:12]
And I went down on one knee[00:02:14]
With a glint in my eyes and a rose between my teeth[00:02:17]
And I pushed out my tongue[00:02:23]
For you to see[00:02:25]
That I'd been dying of a thirst[00:02:28]
For your company[00:02:31]
Then you quenched my loneliness[00:02:33]
With your tears[00:02:37]
And our clothes fell away[00:02:39]
As we rolled back the years[00:02:42]
But we could't deny[00:02:45]
It because we could not admit it[00:02:50]
If our love was too strong to die[00:02:56]
Or we were just too weak to kill it[00:03:02]
Was our love too strong to die[00:03:07]
Or were we just too weak to kill it[00:03:13]
Every moment in that room[00:03:40]
I closed my eyes in prayer[00:03:43]
Every moment I awoke[00:03:51]
I clenched my teeth in prayer[00:03:54]
What kind[00:04:02]
Of man[00:04:03]
Was I[00:04:05]
Who would sacrify your happiness to satisfy his pride[00:04:07]
What kind of man was I[00:04:13]
Who would delay your destiny to appease his tiny mind[00:04:18]
What kind of man was I[00:04:24]
Who could delay your destiny to appease his[00:04:29]
Aching swollen pride[00:04:34]
Who could delay your destiny to appease his screaming little mind[00:04:41]
You're mine[00:04:57]
You're mine[00:05:02]
You're mine[00:05:08]
You're mine[00:05:13]
You're mine[00:05:19]
You're mine[00:05:30]
