I loved you in the morning, our kisses deep and warm Your hair upon the pillow, like a sleepy golden storm Yes, many loved before us, I know that we are not new In city and in forest they smiled like me and you
Now in Vienna there's ten pretty women There's a shoulder where Death comes to cry There's a lobby with nine hundred windows There's a tree where the doves go to die There's a piece that was torn from the morning And it hangs in the Gallery of Frost
Those were the reasons and that was New York We were running for the money and the flesh And that was called love for the workers in song Probably still is for those of them left
There's a lover in the story But the story's still the same There's a lullaby for suffering And a paradox to blame But it's written in the scriptures And it's not some idle claim You want it darker We kill the flame
… I loved you in the morning, our kisses deep and warm Your hair upon the pillow like a sleepy golden storm Yes, many loved before us, I know that we are not new In city and in forest they smiled like me and you But now it’s come to distances and both of us must try Your eyes are soft with sorrow Hey, that’s no way to say goodbye
