Two cripples dancing to the end we live.

I'm not with you, not of you. Not with you, not of you.

You are soft and young to me. I am the ghost who comes and goes
Em G Bm
And I hope I'll catch you in the throws
Am7 G Bm
Of one last look at the wonder, One last look at the wonder.
Chorus
Em Dsus4

Some other love becomes you, whatever else we come to

I know we could be so happy, baby, if we wanted to be

There’s no easy answer
None to blame or forgive
Two cripples dancing
To the end we live
A5
I’m not with you not of you
G5 F5
Not with you, not of you
You are soft and young to me
I am the ghost who comes and goes
And I hope I’ll catch you
A5
In the throws of one last look at the wonder
G5 F5
One last look at the wonder
Chorus
Oh, God, I love you
And all the past we once knew
Some other love becomes you
Whatever else we come to
I know we could be so happy, baby
If we wanted to be

And so on for the rest of the song
You are soft and young to me
I am the ghost who comes and goes
I'm hoping that I’ll catch you in the throws
Of one last look at joy that we’ve become
But there’s no easy answer, none to blame or forgive
We were two cripples dancing
To the bitter end we live
I’m not with you, but of you
I’m not with you but of you
O, God, I loved you
And all the past we once knew
Some other love becomes you
Whatever else it comes to
I know we could be so happy, baby
If we wanted to be
We had a birthplace in common
We had separate beds and lives
I’ll just sit here and glow
Break out the oldest pictures
Hand your ruined letters out to dry
We had a birthplace in common
And separate beds and lives
And lives, and lives
I know that we could be so happy, baby
If we wanted to be
I know that we could be so happy, baby
