Seeping

from Sacred Precinct by Virgin Twin

lyrics

You’ll never know what I had in mind.
You’d never mind what I’d feel.
You’ll never feel all my pain when deep inside
The things you’d bring all come seeping in.

You’ll never get what you thought you’d see.
You’ve never seen what I’d show.
You’d never show, when I’d ask you what it’s for.
The things you’d bring all come seeping in.

In the twilight, nothing’s bad and nothing’s good.
Does my hindsight show exactly what it should?
I never thought I’d believe it, but love can go astray.
Now you’re gone – not your fool/full, I’m your empty.

You’ll never see what you had to lose.
You’ll never lose what you can’t find.
You’ll never find, in those cracks down on the floor,
The things you’d bring all come seeping in.

You’ll never leave where you had to stay.
You’d never stay where you’d go.
You’d never go, when I asked you to the door.
The things you’d bring all come seeping in.

In the moment, it’s so hard to feel what’s right.
Times we both spent half in darkness, half in light.
I swore I’d never be leaving, but now what can I say?
Now we’re gone – looking glass is half empty.

I couldn’t know what you’d have to seek.
I couldn’t seek where you’d hide.
I’ll never hide the hole I have dug in my heart where
The things you’d bring all come seeping in.
