I left a woman waiting              I met her sometime later             She said "I see your eyes are dead          What happened to you lover?      What happened to you my lover?      What happened to you lover?  What happened to you?"               And since she spoke the truth to me          I tried to answer truthfully          "Whatever happened to my eyes         Happened to your beauty       Happened to your beauty  What happened to your beauty   Happened to me"              We took ourselves to someone's bed          And there we fell together      Quick as dogs and truly dead were we   And free as running water   Free as running water   Free as running water   Free as you and me   "The way it's got to be    The way it's got to be lover"
