Absinthe Lyrics - Comfort Of Strangers - Beth Orton

My love's a star you only saw the traces of 

What went before is not no more, it's the embers of 

People always catching names too late 

And we're all sorry there's no time to make the change 

I could hear rebellion rising 

I could feel the stars aligning 

I could see the wave rising 

But I never did seem to find my way back home 

My love's a ball I threw to you 

Once I was gone, you caught it too 

Love ignored erodes in time, changes shape, went and changed your mind 

All I really needed was someone to take me home 

Enough absinthe can crush your spirit to the bone 

I could feel rebellion rising 

I could hear the stars aligning 

I could see the wave rising 

But I never did seem to find my way back home 

No, I never did wanna find my way back home
