Текст The Staves — I Try

I wake, curled like a field mouse
Wrapped in your arms, I know
The house is still asleep

Seasons pass in a hurry
«Do not forget», he said
«I know you best of all»

I burn, I break, I try to do right
You ache, you kiss, you curse
But you lie with me tonight

I am a wisp of a woman
Caught in a gust of wind
I disappear, like smoke

You are, cover to cover
From beginning to end, my friend
The man you ought to be

But I burn, I break, I try to do right
You ache, you kiss, you curse
But you lie with me tonight

I burn, I break, I try to do right
You ache, you kiss, you curse
But you lie with me tonight
