lyrics

IT GOES WITHOUT SAYING

It goes without saying,
it came without touch
it moves just a little
but a little too much
you hold-on with no future
like dew on a rose
so it goes without saying
and that's how it goes.

You see, we tumbled like boulders,
cold wind in a hall
holding together,
waiting to fall
where I was your meadow
now lavender grows
it goes without saying
and that's how it goes.

The last dance was fading
replaced by the mist
I heard they were writing
our names on the list
and it glided between us
as we lined-up in rows
my love, my love,
it comes without saying
and that's how it goes.

For the child in the field
with bramble and nettle
it could slow down
but it could not settle
well, they said it was something
but nobody knows
all she had left
she left with her clothes
and she said it was someone
but nobody knows
nobody knows for sure.

It goes without saying,
it came without touch
it moves just a little
but a little too much
you sigh for a moment
and that's how it shows
when it goes without saying
that's how it goes
yes, when it goes without saying
that's how it goes.
