How many times we've prayed and played
Lifting lovers up and down
It gets around in this old town

Sleight of hand and sleight of mouth
A dirty trick to catch me out
I don't mind but what I say
Use that magic for better days

Standing above this moment
Listening to all I say
The spy of love will track me
Will catch me

Through the window I see a face
That dirty face that speaks with sorrow
You listen to the walls for clues
Stand in shadows protecting you
