10,000 Maniacs - Noah's Dove lyrics

You must be leaving You win a prize for that For telling lies like that So well that I believed it And never felt cheated You were the chosen one The pure eyes of Noah's dove Choir boys and angels Stole your lips and your halo In your reckless mind You act as if you've got more lives In your reckless eyes You only have time and your love of danger To it your no stranger In that August breeze Of those forgotten trees Your time was set for leaving Come a colder season In your reckless mind You act as if you've got more lives In your reckless eyes It's never too late for a chance to seize some Final breath of freedom Very, so very wise Don't reveal it I'm tired, tired of knowing Where it is you're going In your reckless mind You act as if you've got more lives In your reckless eyes You only have time and your love of danger To it you're no stranger In your reckless mind You act as if you've got more lives In your reckless eyes It's never too late for a chance to seize Some final breath of freedom
