I saw from the cathedral  You were watching me  And I saw from the cathedral  What I should be  So take my lies  And take my time  'Cos all the others want to take my life  And I watch, with an intent, basic  It's the same for you  You hold your hand  And it's all fine --- laced and  "What would you make me do?"  So take my lies  And take my time  'Cos all the others want to take my life  Serious for the winter time  To wrench my soul  Whole cotton, whole cotton ears  But I know there must be  Yes, I know there must be, Yes, I know there must be a place to go  You saw me, from the cathedral  Well I'm an ancient heart  Yes, you saw me from the cathedral  Well here we are just falling apart  You catch me  I am tired  I want all that you are  So take my lies  And take my time  'Cos all the others want to take my life
