Oh, Valentine Paroles

I have brought you a lemon tree
You have said you will be my wife
Hold me dear most constantly

You have wounds upon your hands
They are scars upon your eyes
I have time enough to breathe the smoke in
Watch it curling through the sky

Oh separation, like a mirror
Holds you in my constant view
Just beyond the light reflected
There is a blackness passing through

Oh Valentine, you made me smile
Give me life for a minute more
Oh demon, time: don't take it
Spare it, let me live it forevermore
