Love Turns 40 Lyrics

Love Turns 40 lyrics

She's holding a secret that she'll never tell

She's holding a secret that
she'll never tell

Cause the myth is not supposed to retire

We'd
rather it lit itself on fire

Or overdosed in a four star hotel



She's holding a truth that she'll never reveal

She's holding a truth
that she'll never reveal

Cause truth this time is an ugly child

And
mother and daughter may reconcile

But their faces will never heal



Don't go, she says, but he's sleeping

She says it to herself

Don't go, she sees herself rising

Packing her suitcase with all of her
shoes

But something keeps you faithful

When all else in you turns
and runs

Love turns 40



The morning comes



She's
holding a secret that she'll never tell

She's holding a secret that
she'll never tell

Because we were once cinema gods in the night

Now
all we've got is lunch hour light

Where nothing photographs well



Don't go, she says, but he's sleeping

She says it to the
dark

Don't go, she sees herself rising

Dressing in silence for
nothing to lose

But something keeps you faithful

When all else in
you turns and runs

Love turns 40



The morning comes
