Lyrics

Tell me what you're thinking baby Your heart's beating faster than mine And I know something's going on in your life In your life... in your life You were the girl I wanted to cry with You were the girl I wanted to die with And you were the boy who turned into the man Broke my heart and let go off my hand Our bed is empty, the fire is out And all the love we've got to give has all spurted out There's no more blood and no more pain In our kingdom of rain You think you know about life You think you know about love But when you put your hands inside me It doesn't even feel like I'm being touched, and You were the boy I wanted to cry with You were the boy I wanted to die with You've moved further from my side, year by year, While still making love dutifully sincere But as silent as the car lights that move across this room As cold as our bodies silhouetted by the moon And I would lie awake and wonder Is it just me or this the way love is supposed to be? Tell me what you told him baby My heart's beating out of time with my mind And I know something's going wrong in our lives I just wanted somebody to caress, this damsel in distress I just wanted somebody to undress, this damsel in distress I just wanted somebody to bless, this damsel in distress I just wanted somebody to possess, this young girl Our bed is empty, the fire is out And all the love we've got to give has all spurted out There's no more blood and no more pain In our kingdom of rain
