Except For Love

[Verse 1]
Once there was a time my body
Young girls on my mind
Out of a tin window I climbed
And from the roof, the world was mine
My long hair hung down loose
My naked skin was white and smooth
But not as thin
A virgin in the wind outside above the valley
Open wide

[Chorus]
Mm‚ mm
Mm‚ mm
Mm‚ mm
Mm

[Verse 2]
I'd walk to the prowl
The cabin clearly my ship now
The branches on the older tree
Lashed back and forth like waves at sea
A moony wind came like a song
The mountain's throat ten miles long
Beneath my feet on tar and sand
The cabin roof so far from land

[Chorus]
Mm, mm
Mm, mm
Mm‚ mm
Mm

[Verse 3]
My writing fingers stained with ink
My eyes need more to cry than blink
A kid a fool for poetry
A kid who closed her eyes to see
The moody wind met moody me
A king and queen midnight to three
That's I lost the limit of my human form

[Chorus]
Except for love
Except for love
Except for love
Except for love
Except for love
Love
Mm, mm
Mm, mm
Mm‚ mm
Mm

[Outro]
Except for love
Except for love
