in my happy home I barely breathe
in my lovers arms I find relief
and there's a sky that's
 changing and a bird that sings
I never once in my wayward
 life was heading [bad word] out

in my lovers arms I wait for morning
I beg my god to speak and
 tear me apart
I'd lay down my body I'd lay down my arms
I never once in my sweet short
 life meant anybody harm

in my happy home i read the signs
in my lovers arms I move in time
there's no more crying and
 there's no more lies
I never once in my sweet short
 life was waiting for desire

and there's no more crying
and there's no more pain
I never thought for one second
 I'd have nothing left but shame

in my happy home I barely breathe
I never once in my wayward life
 was heading [bad word] out
