There's a scar between us A thorn upon this rose My skin will only weaken The more I lose control
♪ She has the mark of genius So perfectly impure A harlequin from Venus Walking through my door Sorry love, sorry love, sorry love I've seen you in history books I've seen you in the quiet looks I've seen you in the firelight I see you when I close my eyes And when I see you between these lines I breathe your name back to life I see you suffer on your own I see you and I want to take you home ♪ She has the mark of sorrow She suffers in my skin My scars are hers to borrow I'd give her anything Sorry love, sorry love, sorry love I've seen you in tenderness I see you, my murderess I see you when the lightning strikes I see you when I close my eyes And when I see you, like a blinding light It's when I need you, don't give up this fight I see you as they throw their stones I see you and I want you for my own ♪ My own Well, there's a place for us dreamers You only have to choose to escape (ah) Their hands are never gonna reach us And I'm never gonna wake
