Darling, take my hand This ride is getting rough And there's no talk of Trouble ceasing I want you in my arms They're sounding the alarms And no one knows if We've seen the worst yet Sometimes I close my eyes And hum the songs we loved Your dress was blue and you Were as bright as Christmas And down through all the streets The air was cool and sweet And all we knew was brief But seemed eternal The cathedrals and the banks The stones we throw at tanks The endless war of man Verses himself The traffic night and day The things we try and say The growing din of Human wreckage It started simple enough Day broke and we woke up To the morning news and The smell of coffee I loved you with my mind I gave you all my time And then things got sublime We are snowmen We disappear Our hearts are nuclear With hope and fear Hope and fear Hope and fear
