Magazine - I Wanted Your Heart lyrics

I wanted your heart

for the last time

I want to be in your bed

I want your words

to colour all that's been said

"I will love you when the devil is blind"

I wanted your heart

you didn't want mine

This is as close as I get

as I ever get

falling for things

I never thought

I'd find myself

falling for

as close as I get

Old ladies on the pavement

in the dense and empty hours

all as hard as nails

and brittle as pressed flowers

I was cold at an equally cold place

a cigarette between the flame and my face

you were laughing

like the goon squad in my heart

This is as close ...

I wanted your heart

What do you think about

what I think about!

truths that are lies

when you spell them out

don't worry

don't betray the slightest emotion

yes I know

it's a separate emotion

As close as I get
