I've seen that recipe
Lawmen and royalty
And nothing on earth can take that taste
And make it something sweet

I saw the news today
A broken everything with years to pay
And nobody else can save us now
And that's alright by me
'cause I say

We make love in the face of it all
Feel the freedom and the purity
And what we need is not security
Something more than a law

We walk at night in a blind wind
Through the streets where the rich ones lived
And what we want's beyond the will to win
Something more than a law

I feel the rain on me
I'm soaked in memory
And never will I betray that love
'Cause that's not love by me

I know prosperity
But he could never be a part of me
The snow and the stone
Feeling never at home

Well she's my poetry
'Cause I say

And when we're lonely
It's more than lonely
So we turn around to say something bigger than us
But then who do you blame when your love is gone?
