about

Re-worked 2014 version of the original which was recorded about 1999/2000.

lyrics

The rags of love here in my hands
Torn and tattered
A battered heart in a winter land
Lose this bag of bones
Let it crumble to the desert sands
For the ways of this world
Are not the ways of this man?

Count the hours in shades of blue
Drain the colours from me and you
Would we know the truth?
Do we ever really know the truth?
It’s sad to say we never learn
We never learn no matter what we do

All my love don’t throw it away
All my love
Just give it back
Just give it back
I might need it to save my soul someday

Now an empty bottle floats away
Sends no message not much to say
To a world so cruel breaks all the rules
Hey what have we done?
As we lay asleep the walls of peace
Came tumbling down

All my love don’t throw it away….
