Lyrics

I'm harboring a fugitive, a defector of a kind
And she lives in my soul, and drinks of my wine
And I'd give my last breath to keep us alive
Are they coming for us, cameras or guns
We don't know which, but we gotta run
And you say this is not what I bargained for
So hide yourself
For me
All for me
We swore to ourselves we'd go to the end of the world
But I got caught up in the whirl, twirled of it all
A day in the sun, dancing alone
Baby, I'm so sorry
Now it's coming to you
The lessons I've learned
Won't do you any good
You've got to get burned
Well the curse and the blessing
They're one in the same
Baby it's all such a treacherous gain
Hide yourself for me
I said hide yourself for me
All for me
I stood without clothes
Danced in the sand
I was aching with freedom
And kissing the damned
I said remember this
How it should be
Oh baby I said it's all in our hands
Got to learn to respect what we don't understand
We are fortunate ones, fortunate ones I swear
Hide yourself for me
I will hide myself for you
All for you
All for you
I, I will hide myself for you
All for you
I stood without clothes
Danced in the sand
I was aching with freedom
Kissing the damned
I said remember this as how it should be
