Eucharist Lyrics - Singles - Stephen Duffy

I was born in poverty but when I was about nineteen 

I wrote a song called 'Kiss Me', and soon it was pay day 

A terraced house in the country, I thought that would do for me 

It seemed to be the lilac time, but when the lilac died 

I went back to town and cried, I need someone who'll always love me 

The day after someone dies, you wake a little less alive 

Why do the wicked seem to survive, Eucharist in song 

We're a little more alone, moments that they'd never know 

They'll never see my happy home, you see them every day 

I know you want to say you won't forget, we'll always love you 

When you're young and you fall down you cry 

When you're old and you fall down you're dead 

I am in between there and never been 

Anywhere or sincere with anyone that I held dear 

Checking in around twilight, the hotel readies for the night 

I run a bath and pack some books, which we will embrace 

Told me that your father died, when you buried him you cried 

You're sorry and you are surprised, he died and you were born 

So you don't have to mourn, live your life, I'll always love you 

Love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you
