      You want to know why I hate you?
      Well I'll try and explain...
      You remember that day in Paris
      When we wandered through the rain
      And promised to each other
      That we'd always think the same
      And dreamed that dream
      To be two souls as one
      And stopped just as the sun set
      And waited for the night
      Outside a glittering building
      Of glittering glass and burning light...

      And in the road before us
      Stood a weary greyish man
      Who held a child upon his back
      A small boy by the hand
      The three of them were dressed in rags
      And thinner than the air
      And all six eyes stared fixedly on you

      The father's eyes said "Beautiful!
      How beautiful you are!"
      The boy's eyes said
      "How beautiful!
      She shimmers like a star!"
      The childs eyes uttered nothing
      But a mute and utter joy
      And filled my heart with shame for us
      At the way we are

      I turned to look at you
      To read my thoughts upon your face
      And gazed so deep into your eyes
      So beautiful and strange
      Until you spoke
      And showed me understanding is a dream
      "I hate these people staring
      Make them go away from me!"

      The fathers eyes said "Beautiful!
      How beautiful you are!"
      The boys eyes said
      "How beautiful! She glitters like a star!"
      The child's eyes uttered joy
      And stilled my heart with sadness
      For the way we are

      And this is why I hate you
      And how I understand
      That no-one ever knows or loves another

      Or loves another

      So soft

      Under your skin

      Oh I'll empty you

      Into deep black water
      And breathe
      And breathe...

      Then an angel would come
      With burning eyes like stars
      And bury us deep
      In his velvet arms

      And the rain would cry
      As our faces slipped away
      And the rain would cry

      Don't let it end...

      Spinning on that dizzy edge
      I kissed her face and kissed her head
      And dreamed of all the different ways I had
      To make her glow
      "Why are you so far away?" she said
      "Why won't you ever know that I'm in love with you
      That I'm in love with you"

      Alone above a raging sea

      Her head an inch away from heaven
      And her face pressed tight
      And all around the night sang out
      Like cockatoos

      "There are a thousand things" he said
      "I'll never say those things to you again"
      And turning on his heel
      He left a trace of bubbles
      Bleeding in his stead
