Random Details of Love Lyrics
Verse 1
Every time
I write this song,
it ends the same way
– wrong,
because I always love
with the same heart.
You’d think I’d know
right from the start
I’m bringing my careless heart along.
Verse 2
Love was stolen
from you
by the gypsies
of your soul;
you think you
know what to do
about love,
but it’s not the same,
and you can barely recall its name.
Chorus
Random details of love, you and me,
always busy laying arcane tracks
across the wilderness, the rugged country
of our souls; we’re burdened by these facts,
by these facts
Verse 3
You know
some things about life:
it always
seems to aspire
to a certain
amount of strife,
the forfeit of youth,
it requires
so wisdom can be yours to acquire.
Verse 4
Pure love
is what you
gave up
in heaven
to achieve
this breakthrough
into a body
here on Earth . . .
sometimes you forget it’s true.
Chorus
Random details of love, you and me,
always busy laying arcane tracks
across the wilderness, the rugged country
of our souls; we’re burdened by these facts,
by these facts
Bridge
Hints are not real
as much as you want to steal
truth from them.
What your heart really needs
is to know love always recedes;
but your soul also believes
love always comes back, and shows
an equal amount for your needs;
for everything on Earth, Love knows,
truly ebbs and flows . . . . then achieves.
Instrumental
Chorus
Random details of love, you and me,
always busy laying arcane tracks
across the wilderness, the rugged country
of our souls; we’re burdened by these facts,
by these facts
