[00:10.05]I believe that you heard your master sing
[00:15.55]when I was sick in bed.
[00:18.67]I suppose that he told you everything
[00:22.86]that I keep locked away in my head.
[00:26.86]Your master took you travelling'
[00:30.99]well at least that's what you said.
[00:35.24]And now do you come back to bring
[00:38.98]your prisoner wine and bread?
[00:49.29]You met him at some temple' where
[00:53.92]they take your clothes at the door.
[00:57.36]He was just a numberless man in a chair
[01:01.86]who'd just come back from the war.
[01:04.98]And you wrap up his tired face in your hair
[01:09.36]and he hands you the apple core.
[01:12.86]Then he touches your lips now so suddenly bare
[01:16.74]of all the kisses we put on some time before.
[01:27.11]And he gave you a German Shepherd to walk
[01:31.30]with a collar of leather and nails'
[01:34.74]and he never once made you explain or talk
[01:39.11]about all of the little details'
[01:42.49]such as who had a word and who had a rock'
[01:48.49]and who had you through the mails.
[01:51.11]Now your love is a secret all over the block'
[01:54.55]and it never stops not even when your master fails.
[02:04.42]And he took you up in his aeroplane'
[02:08.17]which he flew without any hands'
[02:11.99]and you cruised above the ribbons of rain
[02:16.11]that drove the crowd from the stands.
[02:19.80]Then he killed the lights in a lonely Lane
[02:24.11]and' an ape with angel glands'
[02:27.86]erased the final wisps of pain
[02:31.68]with the music of rubber bands.
[02:35.61]
[02:41.86]And now I hear your master sing'
[02:45.68]you kneel for him to come.
[02:49.61]His body is a golden string
[02:53.24]
[02:54.56]that your body is hanging from.
[02:57.57]His body is a golden string'
[03:01.50]my body has grown numb.
[03:05.38]Oh now you hear your master sing'
[03:09.38]your shirt is all undone.
[03:19.32]And will you kneel beside this bed
[03:23.76]that we polished so long ago'
[03:27.25]before your master chose instead
[03:29.94]
[03:31.29]to make my bed of snow?
[03:34.99]Your eyes are wild and your knuckles are red
[03:39.42]and you're speaking far too low.
[03:42.55]No I can't make out what your master said
[03:46.86]before he made you go.
[03:56.86]Then I think you're playing far too rough
[04:00.92]for a lady who's been to the moon;
[04:04.80]I've lain by this window long enough
[04:08.67]to get used to an empty room.
[04:12.48]And your love is some dust in an old man's cough
[04:16.73]who is tapping his foot to a tune'
[04:20.73]and your thighs are a ruin' you want too much'
[04:24.61]let's say you came back some time too soon.
[04:34.98]I loved your master perfectly
[04:38.98]I taught him all that he knew.
[04:42.86]He was starving in some deep mystery
[04:46.98]like a man who is sure what is true.
[04:50.73]And I sent you to him with my guarantee
[04:54.48]I could teach him something new'
[04:58.67]and I taught him how you would long for me
[05:02.67]no matter what he said no matter what you'd do.
[05:12.99]I believe that you heard your master sing
[05:17.36]while I was sick in bed'
[05:20.86]I'm sure that he told you everything
[05:24.74]I must keep locked away in my head.
[05:28.92]Your master took you travelling'
[05:32.17]well at least that's what you said'
[05:37.05]And now do you come back to bring
[05:40.86]your prisoner wine and bread?
