Misplaced Love Lyrics - Marianne Faithfull

You noticed that I closed my eyes again 

And smiled in all the silence I have grown in me for you. 

But then, what accident of stars 

Brought you so late into my arms 

Where even now another sleeps ? 

Here in my heart I know that you and I are one. 

I wonder if some joker laughs as he looks on 

I wonder if some joker laughs as he looks on 

I wonder if some joker laughs as he looks on 

At all our misplaced love, all our misplaced love. 

You noticed that I turned my head away 

And cried for all the goodness I have found deceiving you. 

Ah well, how could we know the hand 

Fate chose to be our guide was tired 

Of lover's bliss and holding hands 

And deep in my heart I know that you and I are one. 

I wonder if some joker sighs for what we've done 

I wonder if some joker sighs for what we've done 

I wonder if some joker sighs for what we've done 

With all our misplaced, all our misplaced love. 

I noticed that you touched my soul in time 

And lied to stop my leaving 

For a place where no one hears. 

But then what randomness and chance 

Could move the mountain from our dreams, 

Or break the spell upon us now ? 

And though deep in my heart I know you and I are one 

I wonder if the joker dies what will become 

I wonder if the joker dies what will become 

I wonder if the joker dies what will become 

Of all our misplaced love. 

All our misplaced love. 

All our misplaced ...
