The Chase

I take my licks -- like a man

Facing forward

I made my bed, it wasn't yours

How soon we'd forget -- what we shared

You said you'd always be mine

I nodded and smiled

Tongue out of my head

Is this love?

Or the love of the chase?

Is this love?

Tell me now, is it love?

We did the best that we can

Across the world

We made a plan, it wasn't yours

How soon we'd forget -- what we shared

In folding sands

Our castle, no more

The magic -- sleight of hand

Is this love?

Or the love of the chase?

I had you once, you kept forgetting my name

Is this love?

Or the love of the chase?

What was your name?

Was it something like me?

We recede in the fog

As to breathe in this calm

And forget this walk

To leave, you and all

We were more than the fall

I hope you'd agree

Like sunlight through the fog

Always chasing me

Lil bluebell in shade -- what was your name?

Was it something like me?

Lil bluebell in shade

What was your name?

Was it something like me?
