lyrics

What were you expecting? Fireworks over Versailles?
All I felt was trepidation as we pulled into the Finland Station to kiss the empire goodbye
Don't you know it's not freedom I crave? It's just a little tenderness before I hit the grave

You've been preparing, like Columbus with his bearings, as if our love is here to be discovered
But our unhappy capers will never make the papers
We're just nothing special lovers, like a billion others
Don't you know it's not freedom I crave? It's just a little tenderness before I hit the grave

Tonight the moon is full, and we are free men
You push me up against the wonder of it all, with opera glasses, a bible, and a hatpin
What am I supposed to do with these things?
