Fugitive

(album: Swamp Ophelia - 1994)

I'm harboring a fugitive a defector of a kind she lives in my soul drinks of my wine and i'd give my last breath to keep us alive are they coming for us with cameras or guns we don't know which but we gotta run you say this is not what i bargained for so hide yourself for me all for me we swore to ourselves we'd go to the end of the world but i got caught up in whirl and the twirl of it all a day in the sun dancing alone baby i'm so sorry now now it's coming to you the lessons i've learned won't do you any good you've got to get burned the curse and the blessing they're one in the same baby it's all such a treacherous gain hide yourself from me i said hide yourself from me all for me i stood without clothes danced in the sand i was aching with freedom kissing the damned i said remember this as how it should be baby i said it's all in our hands got to learn to respect what we don't understand we are fortunate ones fortunate ones i swear so hide yourself for me i will hide myself for you all for you i stood
without clothes danced in the sand i was aching with freedom kissing the damned i said remember this as how it should be
