I used to sit and listen to him hurting
He said he had to talk to try and know
How love that’s unreturned, Can taunt you like a siren
You cannot leave but you know you should go
I was no stranger to his sadness
I had been lost in that way too
I could only sit there listening, As dumb as the deep forest
Until he could see what he already knew
Chorus
BmC / BmEmC? / BmC / AmDCD
Well love is a sinewed beast
It hears not the voice of Reason
It must follow where its instinct leads
It can turn loyalty into treason / It knows neither loyalty nor treason
She’d come to see him perfumed with apple
I watched their death defying dance
We shared a word or two, I was politely at a distance
It wasn’t long before I saw her glance
We’d meet at other peoples parties
Little by little I guess I knew
I would have to stay or go and either, He or me would be wounded
In the end I closed my eyes and claimed I let her choose
Well love is a sinewed beast
It hears not the voice of Reason
It must follow where its instinct leads
It can turn loyalty into treason / It knows neither loyalty nor treason
Solo
Well there’s a price for everything you do
But it’s only after that you know
How everything you’ve gained, Must be weighed against what’s lost
And you’ll have to bear this weight until you go
Well love is a sinewed beast
It hears not the voice of Reason
It must follow where its instinct leads
It can turn loyalty into treason / It knows neither loyalty nor treason
/ you gotta reap just what you sow
If I could have my time again
I’m not sure there’s much I’d change
Except to tell my story out loud
and not let it come too late and take my friends in flames
Well I’m not proud of what happened next
But it was like I was free at last
Though I knew the consequences took that
I took that final
From what had once seemed so hard and fast
And
I became steely to the But the voices I was hearing then
Chorus
And let the silence set
Until he found
