Fairweather Lover Lyrics

Right there washed up on the coast

It's the debris from the dead weight boats

There are no red lights on the way

The amber light is there across the bay

I grew on the tree of life

I fell to the ground at the speed of light

Numbers paint no sisters and brothers

But they did for my fairweather lover

A murder of crows has silenced many minds

One alone brings sorrow

Two? The end times

The talk of the town was they were making their way through

So, when the whip came down, I had to know you

You were here and then you were there

And if I asked you why, you wouldn't tell the truth

You wouldn't dare

My pride is no origin of sin

My love won't change with the wind

Devotion for me is hardly something other

But not for my fairweather lover

A murder of crows has silenced many minds

One alone brings sorrow

Two? The end times

The talk of the town was they were making their way through

So, when the whip came down

I had to know you, feel you

And if there's guilt by association

And it's the dose that makes the poison

To be sanctified I'll need all of the world and her sister's time

You were here and then you were there

And if I asked you why, you wouldn't tell the truth

You wouldn't dare

You were here, and then you were there

And if I asked you why, you wouldn't tell the truth

You wouldn't dare
