The captive heart Lyrics by Brendan Perry

The captive heart Lyrics

    The old clock is ticking now
    Marks the space between us
    Your memory enshrouds my heart
    For I am held a captive

    Sometimes my soul desires
    To take leave of this old world
    To spread these golden wings and fly
    To the city of angels

    But then if I close my eyes
    I can see you standing there
    Your face in permanence smiles
    Your lips a chalice

    Seems like I've loved you all my life
    Never thought I'd find you
    One day the muse may lend these words wings
    So I can touch you

    But hey!
    Don't worry if the feelings not strong for you
    I have lived my life in accordance
    To the windfalls of passion
    Though I know what it means
    To be loved and then forgotten

    I have seen too many men
    Driven insane by their distractions
