Where birds mock reality
We laid out some bread crumbs
Yeah but somebody ate 'em
Always thought we'd make it here
But here keeps movin'
How much blood
How many tears
It's never been proven
Love's not where we thought we left it
Who took the last of love and kept it
Caged love in tried to protect it
Love's not where we thought we left it
The apostles were jealous
of Mary Magdalene and Jesus
Said why do you love her more than us
Jesus turned back in disgust
Said why do I love her more than you
The answer is a question
Just ask yourself what can I do
To gain my lord's affection
Love's not where you thought you left it
Who took the last of love and kept it
Caged love in tried to protect it
Love's not where we thought we left it
When men become more ladylike
I'll see you in the candlelight
When women come to be like men
We'll be ashamed to fight again
No jealous God's the only one
Father, mother, ghost and son
Love's unorthodox
Changes all of nature's clocks
To time remaining
Just twenty-four hours
For lovers in training
Bitter, salty, sweet and sour
Love's not where we thought we left it
Who took the last of love and kept it
Love's not where we thought we left it
Who took the last of love and kept it
Love's not where we thought we left it
In the forest of no gravity Where birds mock reality We laid out some bread crumbs Yeah but somebody ate 'em Always thought we'd make it here But here keeps movin' How much blood How many tears It's never been proven Love's not where we thought we left it Who took the last of love and kept it Caged love in tried to protect it Love's not where we thought we left it The apostles were jealous of Mary Magdalene and Jesus Said why do you love her more than us Jesus turned back in disgust Said why do I love her more than you The answer is a question Just ask yourself what can I do To gain my lord's affection Love's not where you thought you left it Who took the last of love and kept it Caged love in tried to protect it Love's not where we thought we left it When men become more ladylike I'll see you in the candlelight When women come to be like men We'll be ashamed to fight again No jealous God's the only one Father, mother, ghost and son Love's unorthodox Changes all of nature's clocks To time remaining Just twenty-four hours For lovers in training Bitter, salty, sweet and sour Love's not where we thought we left it Who took the last of love and kept it Love's not where we thought we left it Who took the last of love and kept it Love's not where we thought we left it Explain Request ×
