Jeff Buckley - Morning Theft Lyrics
(j.buckley)Time takes care of the wound, so I can believe.You had so much to give, you thought I couldnt see.Gifts for boot heels to crush, promises deceivedI had to send it away to bring us back again.Our eyes and bodies brighten silent waters, deep.Your precious daughter in the other room, asleep.A kiss goodnight from every stranger that I meet.I had to send it away to bring us back again.Morning theft. unpretender left, ungraceful.True self is what brought you here, to me.A place where we can accept this love.Friendship battered down by useless history,Unexamined failure.What am I still to you?Some thief who stole from you?Or some fool drama queen whose chances were few?That brings us to who we need,A place where we can saveA heart that beats as both siphon and reservoir.Youre a woman, Im a calf.Youre a window, Im a knife.We come together making chance into starlight.Meet me tomorrow night, or any day you want.I have no right to wonder just how, or when.You know the meaning fits. theres no relief in this.I miss my beautiful friend.I have to send it away to bring her back again.
