Cold Cave – Love Comes Close lyrics
[Verse 1]
Everything changing will all change again,
Sun sheds the light as the life sheds the skin
You kiss your wish to the heart of the world
Secrets you sleep with will not break the spell

Come on let's go home
Buried in your womb
Sing a song of death
'Till there's none left

[Chorus]
Love comes close, but chooses to spare me
Death comes close, but ceases to take me
I want to twist the knife a bit deeper
To siphon the love from the hearts I'd believed in

Look outside, world is exploding
Stay inside, silent but knowing
Taking cover with each other
Sleeping off a century of hope

[Verse 2]
Everyday's changing to remain the same
Silhouettes shy as the rain rots the drain
Everyday's decay debases the dream
The ghosts that will haunt you are not what they seem

Still you say you're dead to deprevity,
But that can't be true, 'cause I know you can hear me.

[Chorus]
Love comes close, but chooses to spare me
Death comes close, but ceases to take me
I want to twist the knife a bit deeper
To siphon the love from the hearts I'd believed in

Look outside, world is exploding
Stay inside, silent but knowing
Taking cover with each other
Sleeping off a century of hope

[Chorus]
Love comes close, but chooses to spare me
Death comes close, but ceases to take me
I want to twist the knife a bit deeper
To siphon the love from the hearts I'd believed in

Look outside, world is exploding
Stay inside, silent but knowing
Taking cover with each other
Sleeping off a century of hope
