lost dance in frost

Van Der Graaf Generator

I wore my moods like so many different sets of clothes
but the right one was never around;
and as you left I heard my body ring
and my mind began to howl
It was far to late to contemplate the meaning of it all:
You know that I need you, but somehow I don t think you see my love
at all

At some point I lost you, I don t know quite how it was;
The wonderland lay in a coat of white, chilling frost
I looked around and I found I was truly lost:
without your hand in mine I am dead .....
Reality is unreal and games I ve tried just aren t the same:
without your smile there s nowhere to hide
and deep inside
I know I ve never cried as I m about to ...

If I could just frame the words that would make your fire burn
all this water now around me could be the love that
should surround me.

Looking out through the tears that bind me
my heart bleeds that you may find me .. or at least that I can
forget and be numb, but I can t stop, the words still come:
I LOVE YOU
