Love me as if someday you'd hate me
For what I give is yours without a name
To fill your night long needs
Only as long as you say
This time you'll learn that love is just a slave
To where the heart beats stronger
This time you'd need in turn or promise forever
I could have been a boy from long ago you've left forgotten
And lately you've wondered where he's gone
Oh, it's never hold to me not as long as love lives in this house
Take me after all you've lost and never wanted
Somewhere between all the nights you've tatsted wine of men forever
Untill they left you to wake alone
Aw, but it's never said to me
Not when the years live in these hours
And darling love me as if someday you'd hate me
For what I am is here in front of you longing to know
How long you'd care for me
This time you'll learn that love is just a slave
To where your heart beats stronger
That's where you stay
I had a talk with my woman
I had a talk with my woman late last night
And she reassured me everything was alright
And time hung still like a falling rain
Now I know at last that my love is safe
Ah but when I go away my love I leave
Lord I'm but half a man without her by my side
She's this memory that I hold all around
She's this dream that I always hold to believe
I wanna go upon a mountain
And sing my love and sing my love
I wanna sing it high, sing it down low
Then I'm gonna know how long it's gonna last
Then I'm gonna know how long it's gonna last
Well you know your moses, oh lord he lost his way
Ah, and your Jesus don't remember the words
Well then I guess it's just you and me brother
All alone in this cold world
All alone in this cold world
Ah, you gotta go upon a mountain
And learn to sing your love, learn to sing your love
You know I can sing it high, sing it down low
Then we gonna know how long it's gonna last
Then we gonna know how long it's gonna last
Hard rain, sweet rain, fall a little while longer
Wash down the city skies
Lord bring the streets alive
Make it like it was long before i was born
