Lyrics The Pains of Being Pure At Heart

The Pains of Being Pure At Heart

Coral and Gold

I’ve been waiting for you, just waiting for you

When you gonna turn?

I’ve been tracing your spine, mixing your blood with mine

When you gonna turn?

When you gonna turn around and tell me how

all I want won’t be

Coming down to where I’m found, your silent vows

steal the life from me

I’ve sentenced myself to the outskirts

I’ve wandered the places we’d go

I drank down the streets with a taste of defeat

‘til the sky turned to coral and gold

You’re further than the ocean goes, my love

You’re further than the ocean goes,

and my love’s not enough

to reach you
