Couer D'alene

You're the only thing I miss from the days before the fire As I walk upon the wire, you're in my footsteps Well, the angel on my shoulder said, "Boy, wait until you're older." I wish that I'd known then he was a liar That summer many years ago, we stopped in Couer d'Alene Prettiest place I've ever seen. Do you remember? Love's a game I never win although I try and try again But heaven must be lust at seventeen I wish that I could crawl inside your heart and look around Would I weep at what I found? Did you ever love me? Well, the devil in my mind, he keeps me hungry all the time And one heart beating's such a lonely sound I know that we're just animals that one day soon will die And when I curse up at the sky that no one hears me The only truth I've ever known was in the moonlight water on your skin And I'd rather live for nothing than a lie
