Painted Veil Lyrics - Other Ways Of Speaking - Russell Crowe

I passed on the painted veil 

Somerset, some other time and love 

Weighed without intention 

And that caught her eye 

She knew what I was thinking of 

I'm not that hard to find 

When I wish of her 

I wish her beneath my gaze 

And if I drink of her it will 

be all my days 

And when she told me she was a trinket 

I forgot to be amazed 

I should have been amazed 

Sand in the hallway 

The glisten of her laugh 

I've never found it easier to spend my days 

My soul sings the prowler?s nocturne 

From deep down within this cage 

We have too many last nights in our lives 

Too many desperate hours 

Whispering goodbyes 

And baby the earth shook 

The last time I heard you cry 

Yes you loved me 

Gently caressed my face 

Not some little sorcery 

Some simple twist of fate 

I was hundreds of feet away 

I should have been amazed 

I should have been amazed
