I know it makes you feel sad Then you look at me that way Your hands hold on the railing As we glide across the bay With everything uncertain It's easy to defend But we do not talk of feelings And you know I can't pretend I don't believe in the power of love I don't believe in the wisdom of stone I don't believe in a God or the mind La la la la I listen to you breathing Its steady and its slow We lie close to the ceiling I think of children in our home But the quiet in the quarters Stirs me from the thought I might leave tommorow To feel the joy of a new start I don't believe in the power of love I don't believe in the wisdom of stone I don't believe in a God or the mind In the morning many seabirds On the icy wind arive Never crowding their companions Against the blinding sky they die I think about you sleeping How you'll miss the morning tide But my stomach is uneasy And I choose to stay outside I don't believe in the power of love I don't believe in the wisdom of stone I don't believe in a God or the mind I'm not alone
