Lyrics for Why I Was Born

Love is no more than this And all from your tatty kiss Never alive until twenty five You can have all I know It's not much but it's all I know Never alive until twenty five If you ask me to I'll say to you I do I really want to show you I love you I now know why I was born My vision is clear You've killed all my fear Don't let me go Don't let me go The world we now stand astride Just watch and we'll halt the tides Never alive until late twenty five And all the world which hates Anything delicate Never alive until twenty five If you ask me to I'll say to you I do I really do want to show you I love you I now know why I was born My vision is clear But there's something in here Screaming don't let me go Don't let me go
