Noah's Dove Lyrics - 10,000 Maniacs

You must be leaving 

You win a prize for that 

For telling lies like that 

So well that I believed it 

And never felt cheated 

You were the chosen one 

The pure eyes of Noah's dove 

Choir boys and angels 

Stole your lips and your halo 

In your reckless mind 

You act as if you've got more lives 

In your reckless eyes 

You only have time and your love of danger 

To it your no stranger 

In that August breeze 

Of those forgotten trees 

Your time was set for leaving 

Come a colder season 

In your reckless mind 

You act as if you've got more lives 

In your reckless eyes 

It's never too late for a chance to seize some 

Final breath of freedom 

Very, so very wise 

Don't reveal it 

I'm tired, tired of knowing 

Where it is you're going 

In your reckless mind 

You act as if you've got more lives 

In your reckless eyes 

You only have time and your love of danger 

To it you're no stranger 

In your reckless mind 

You act as if you've got more lives 

In your reckless eyes 

It's never too late for a chance to seize 

Some final breath of freedom
