Be-Bop Deluxe - Love Is Swift Arrows lyrics
Your rating:
Room in the east invested with meanings Open to none but the strange and the wild Sunset encounters with destiny's chances Envelopes marked for the personal life Night falling, hiding the poets transgression Blown in the winds of Aquarian tides Echoed words spoken by token romantics Rock 'n' roll Supermen, ghosts of new vice Making love in strange autos whilst life’s ink Sings always that love is swift arrows, my dear Oh God, in some heaven whose number is seventeen Dressed you in blue jeans this year To torment my soul, oh, leave me alone Rules to be broken by reckless and young men Odes to be written by passions sick hand Seeds to be sown on the rich fields of promise Ends and beginnings that never quite meet Nothing of value that hasn't yet vanished Brown-eyed and wise as the feminine fates Evening's sweet menace, revealing, inviting Highways to paradise, gray lines of grace Making love in strange autos whilst life’s ink Sings always that love is swift arrows, my dear Oh God, in some heaven whose number is seventeen Dressed you in blue jeans this year To torment my soul, oh, leave me alone
