On a Bridge Called Beloved
A man needs a woman
to fill the bottle with smoke
and there's nothing in me
except a voice from the river
as the memories roll by
The siren confounds me
and I wish she was mine
We're a fallen romance
So let the colours outshine
Let the colours outshine
I feel like I know you've been crying a strangeness inside
Open the window and breathe out the life that you hide
For the mark of obsession
For the mask of a dove
I try to hold on to let go
I try to hold on to love
Like the old fashion day
On a bridge called Beloved
we were locked in our fate
and a beautiful freak
sat and cried me a river
until the tears healed my heart
