your name on my tongue

i heard the bell ringing

in tower of lost desire

grown from small beginnings

the living world undone

now it hums and is singing

like words out on the wire

hanging like surrender

your name on my tongue

grief was my companion

it pushed me like a sea

compass blade at my throat

pointing up to the sun

fear begs a strange courage

it's a holy conspiracy

the trips me down the path

your name on my tongue

your name on my tongue

your name on my tongue

your name on my tongue

get it up

pick it up

fix it up

one more time

get it up

pick it up

fix it up

one more time

'cause i'm still in love

yeah i'm still in love

i'm still in love

with you

i've set out a table

i've made up my bed

the ceiling above my head

the floor where you run

but i've barely been able

to hold my own or my peace

but i'll never let go

your name on my tongue
