Your Word

She came to me in deep distress

Torn with jealousy and rage

He said he'd never love her

Wouldn't marry someone her age

You don't love him, no, you hate him

Then she called me a fool

When you know nothing about cruelty

Then he ceases being cruel

What you see is the air

And your breath is the bond, oh no

When your word isn't there

Your word is your

She dreamt she took off both her ears

Put them in the sand and walked away

Up rose a seven-story cactus

Cast in gold and said to weigh

A million pounds of pure beauty

Measured only by those who see

What you see is the air

And your breath is the bond, oh no

When your word isn't there

Your word is your

When your life is just there

What you say is what's real

No, no no

Because your breath is the bond

And your word is your wand

[Outro](x3)

Your word

Ooh

Ooh
