What started at a summer lake
 sentence and a name
 If only for a moment's sake
 We called it and it came

 Held it down - the loving heat -
 Longer than a time
 Held it down - the loving heat -
 Softer than a chime

 We've seen how Sick Wind blows
 But I've got your bovine eyes
 And I'll love you like I love you
 Then I'll die

 We've seen how Sick Wind blows
 But I've got your bovine eyes
 And I'll love you like I love you
 Then I'll die

 Shot the rats and as they ran
 From the quarry to the tracks
 Chased them as you gave your hand
 And never took it back
 Held it up and felt the wind
 Blow and miss a chime
 Found a god and begged at him
 To fight your body cry

 We've seen how Sick Wind blows
 But I've got your bovine eyes
 And I'll love you like I love you
 Then I'll die

 We've seen how Sick Wind blows
 But I've got your bovine eyes
 And I'll love you like I love you
 Then I'll die

I relate, kid, but I'm the one who wants to let you wonder
 I relate, kid, but I'm the one who wants to let you wonder
 I relate, kid, but I'm the one who wants to let you wonder

We've seen how Sick Wind blows
 But I've got your bovine eyes
 And I'll love you like I love you
 Then I'll die

 I'll love you like I love you
 Then I'll die

 Oh, I'll love you like I love you
 Then I'll die
