And I could let my lover live
But I'm not that nice to know
Been walking round for days since the summer went away
Since I learnt to let my lover go

And I could go on live without it
And I could put the dagger down
Put my blues on the page, walking round for days
Keeping count since you're not around

Let you go, could've let you know
Hard to get but not hard to show
It ain't hard to know
That I let my lover go
I let my lover go

And I could feed you to the flames
Leave you burning just to call you up again
And I could live a hundred lives all in vain
To play the fool in your fools game again

But I ache in the morning
For the sake of your calling
I flew every warning
On my darling

Let you go, could've let you know
Hard to get but not hard to show
It ain't hard to know
That I let my lover go
I let my lover go

And I ask why you're kneeling in blood stained glass
And I ask why you're kneeling in blood stained glass
And I ask why you're kneeling in blood stained glass
And I ask why you're kneeling in blood stained glass
Why you're kneading your blood stained hands
And I ask why you're kneeling in blood stained glass
