I only want to lay with you
My love, my love, my careful love
I've found the hard way love is true

And always love the smiling one
And rounding out will come
With bitter bile and heartless fun
And consciousness made numb

And fearful hate that's stemming out
From fear and only fear
Has made your inner croco shout
And bring his victims here

O love, O love, O careless love
I only want to lay with you
My love, my love, my careful love
I've found the hard way love is true

A creature born in listlessness
His hatred to become
It's here his love is swollen in
And consciousness made numb

And relegate your youth and trust
Your table and your skin
And share the love the godly must
And hold it til the end

O love, O love, O careless love
I only want to lay with you
My love, my love, my careful love
I've found the hard way love is true

I only want to lay with you
My love, my love, my careful love
I've found the hard way love is true
