lyrics

This morning I woke from the body
Like so many mornings before
Not a day for a regular weakness
Not a thought to the burns on the floor
Now the foes have all dropped their anger
Or else I don't care anymore
Cos a hard day in the body was a hard week for us all.

That night as we blew out the candle
I never stood further from doubt
For I tried to treat you with patience
But the words they just fell from your mouth
Yet few lovers are ever sole victims
We abide, we entice and collude
It's a cold day in the family
As we both leave our trails through the rooms.

Such sorrow was seen as an anger
And so then an anger was felt
While you huddled in the warmth of my city
But to me these were not the cards dealt
I just wanted you sent away safely
Where I couldn't be hurt anymore
Was a hard day for forgiveness
Was a hard week on us all.

We need the soothing of a trusted one, somebody kind
A touch with meaning, trusted heart, and with a peace inside
For everything is played again, again, and so we find:
'It's all 'cos of you'.

I know you'd still wear my clothes if you never saw me anymore
It's a hard day in forever when both of you's taking the fall
On the days when we don't feel so fearful
Our compassions they come to the fore
Where there's no need for forgiveness
It's a good day for us all.
