Send My Love to Those Who Deserve It
the words i have tonight are nothing new
i've got a fever in my blood that keeps me warm
though the house is crowded there's laughter here
but it's much too close to feel at home
i had called to see what song you liked
what you'd like to hear before you go
but it's quiet now and the laughter's gone
and suddenly i feel alone
oh the halfside of my city sings
and the lord he took my strength from me
i guess i found the candle left her
and i thought i would come for thee
i would like to see you in the storm
and god he tore your hand from me
i'm lying open and my head is running free
i've got to know i've got to shoulder this one
the words i chose again are often used
for talk of trouble and all that came today
i'm so weighted down
by the thoughts that all you couldn't say
when the autumn classes come to fight
i'll hold back the tears that i have grown
'cause this terrible thing is not moving on
and suddenly i feel alone
the halflight of my city brings
all of the colours that you left me
i guess i found another place down
and i thought i would come for free
i would like to see you in the trees
i'd call a forest to let you catch one
i'm lying open and my head is running free
i've got to know i've got to shoulder this one
i've got to know i've got to shoulder this one
