Your Love Leaves a Mark on Me Songtext
von J. E. Sunde

By the hallway light
I can track your silhouette
Dressed in your nightgown
Bare feet on the cold ground you move
With the grace of a routine
To the dawning of the day

And I find your book
Dogeared on the bedspread
Incremental progress
I faithfully record this with a mark
And the grace of a routine
To the dawning of the day


Your heartbeat insistent like the drums of war
And I love you like a sailor on some bombed out distant shore
Like the fading blue tattoos that cover his arms
Your love leaves a mark on me

I go back to sleep
Cus I don′t work til later
Humbled by the knowing
That I am undeserving of this love
And the grace of a routine
At the dawning of the day

Your heartbeat insistent like the drums of war
And I love you like a sailor on some bombed out distant shore
Like the fading blue tattoos that cover his arms
Your love leaves a mark on me
Yes your love leaves a mark on me
