Noah’s Dove (demo) Songtext
von 10,000 Maniacs

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 you′e 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
