"Mourning Dove" lyrics

"Mourning Dove"

When you leave me I will watch the mourning dove
If you don't need me then I took it far enough

With a child's gaze I'll have so much to confess
Repeat your pulse till your heart beats out of your chest
I'm chained
I'm lost in your elegance

I can't lie 'cause now my
Love for you is too strong to hide
Drink from the fountain until it's dry

When you leave me I will watch the mourning dove
If you don't need me then I took it far enough

An ugly fit, a gutted song, what you require
You taught me well, reach through the mirror, I am the liar
I'm chained
I'm lost in your melody

I can't lie 'cause now my
Love for you is too strong to hide
Drink from the fountain till it's dry
Dry

I was willing, you liked me best
When I was invisible

I was willing, you liked me best
You liked me best
When I was invisible

I was willing, you liked me best
You liked me best

When you leave me I will watch the mourning dove
If you don't need me then I took it far enough
If you don't need me then I took it far enough
If you don't need me then I took it far enough
I'm chained
I'm lost in your elegance

I can't lie 'cause now my
Love for you is too strong to hide
I can't lie 'cause now my
Love for you is too strong to hide
Drink from the fountain till it's dry
Dry
