The Luxury Of Time Lyrics - 2000

[ Buy The Luxury Of Time ]

by the twist of your mouth and a tear you've allowed
there's a rumor believed to be true
in an ignorant bliss there's a secret you missed
and everyone knows it but you
you're tipping the balance as life slips away
a curious talent to sparkle and fade
but you're a bird over sea and a flower in bloom
everyone knows it but you
there's a stain on your dress and a mark on your neck
and a mantra you stole from a song
and though you feel you're exiled like a red headed child
everyone knows you belong
a crystalline vision alive in your eyes
a fragile religion of truth in disguise
you're a gift more than good in a season renewed
everyone knows it but you
yeah you're tipping the balance as life slips away
a curious talent to sparkle and fade
but you're a bird over sea and a flower in bloom
and when you're down on your knees you'll inherit the truth
everyone knows everyone knows
everyone knows it but you...
