Ethereal Love Lyrics

Mother Mary have I cried enough

I'm alone and a bit out of touch

And now that's it's over I'm older than I was

Marble statues turn to dust

And roses wilt to rust

I didn't need eternity

I just needed us

Ethereal Love

We are delicate, soft and eloquent

Head in the clouds, couldn't come down from it

Oh wasn't it fun, flying into the sun

We were drops of dew on the web that we spun

But I'll never forget and I'll never regret

It's like I knew we were through before we ever met

Mother Mary have I cried enough

I'm alone and a bit out of touch

And now that's it's over I'm older than I was

Marble statues turn to dust

And roses wilt to rust

I didn't need eternity

I just needed us

Ethereal Love

We burned so quickly and so bright

We were holy candles in a dark night

Poetry we could never write

And my only wish

Is that you miss me sometimes

Mother Mary have I cried enough

I'm alone and a bit out of touch

And now that's it's over I'm older than I was

Marble statues turn to dust

And roses wilt to rust

I didn't need eternity

I just needed us

Ethereal Love
