Ingenue (1992)

 

 Save me  Season of Hollow Soul
 The mind of love  Outside myself
Miss Chatelaine  Tears of love's recall
 Wash me clean  Constant craving
 So it shall be  
 Still thrives this love  

 

SAVE ME

 

Save me

Save me from you

But pave me

The way to you

Lead me upon the captive free

Gracious and tame like love can be

Lead me upon

 

Spoil me

Spoil me with you

And soil me with the world of you

Watch over me with a mother's eyes

Judging my worth only to glorify

Watch over me

 

Save me save me

Save me save me

Carry

Carry me through

And bury all my doubts of you

Clothe my desire with spell or prayer

I'll shroud every sign of need I swear

Clothe my desire

 

Save me save me

Save me save me

Save me save me

Save me save me

 

THE MIND OF LOVE

 

Talking to myself here

Causing great concern for my health

Where is your head Kathryn

Where is your head

 

I'm trying hard to escape

This constant pull towards ache

Why do you fight Kathryn

Why do you fight

 

Surely help will arrive soon

And cure these self induced wounds

Why hurt yourself Kathryn

Why hurt yourself

Why hurt yourself

 

Can your heart conceal

What the mind of love reveals

 

I'm talking to myself again

It's causing great concernt for my health

Where is your head Kathryn

Where is your head

Where is your head Kathryn

Where is your head

 

Can your heart conceal

What the mind of love reveals

Can your heart conceal

What the mind of love reveals

Does your heart conceal

What the mind of love reveals

 

MISS CHATELAINE

 

Just a kiss

Just a kiss

I have lived just for this

I can't explain why I've become

Miss Chatelaine

 

Just a smile just a smile

Hold me captive just a while

I can't explain why I've become

Miss Chatelaine

 

Every time your eyes meet mine

Clouds of qualm

Burst into sunshine

 

Just a sigh just a sigh

Words

My love just reply

I can't explain why I've become

Miss Chatelaine

Miss Chatelaine

 

Just a smile just a smile

Hold me captive

Just a while

I can't explain why I've become

Miss Chatelaine

 

Cause every time your eyes meet mine

Clouds of qualm

Burst into sunshine

 

Just a kiss just a kiss

I have lived just for this

I can't explain why I've become

Miss Chatelaine

 

Miss Chatelaine

Miss Chatelaine

Miss Chatelaine

Miss Chatelaine

WASH ME CLEAN

 

You swim

Swim through my veins

Drown me

In your reign

 

My desire

Carries no shame

My will

Will harbour no pain

 

Wash

Wash me clean

Mend my wounded seams

Cleanse my tarnished dreams

 

Drink

Drink from my spell

Quench

Love's drying well

 

Wash

Wash me clean

Mend my wounded seams

Cleanse my tarnished dreams


SO IT SHALL BE

 

Shadows

Now curtain the moon

But faith swears

It will shine again soon

Shine with love

You've been hiding from me

 

Your kiss

Has hindered my day

A longing

That won't go away

You just keep knocking

And waking my heart

Like daylight chasing the dark

 

I can exist being caught by your kiss

Willingly

Or grant you control

Of my body and soul

Ask it and so it shall be

 

Shadows

Now curtain the moon

Still faith swears

It will shine again soon

Shine with love

You've been hiding from me

With that love

You've been hiding from me

 

I can exist

Being caught by your kiss

Willingly

Or grant you control of my body and soul

Ask it and so it shall be

Ask it and so it shall be

STILL THRIVES THIS LOVE

 

I often wonder

Is it so

All I am holding

Wants let go

How could I manage

I don't know

 

And I often question

Is it so

Life's contradictions

Tend to grow

Spawning the choices

And the woe

 

But, still somehow thrives this love

Which I pray I'm worthy of

Still somehow thrives this love

 

I often wonder

Is it so

The lessons of patience

Are learned slow

And earnings of labour

May never show

 

But still, somehow, thrives this love

Which I pray

I'm worthy of

Still somehow thrives this love

 

SEASON OF HOLLOW SOUL

 

Keen to the shifting wind

I bend to it blind

To rid these kiss of sin

That must stay behind

 

Sour the fruit of neglect

The core of my doubt

Deprived are my veins you infect

With or without

 

Fate must have a reason

Why else endure the season

Of hollow soul

The ground on which we leave on

How strangely fuels the season

Of hollow soul

Hollow soul

 

Seeds of uprooted chance

Are grains of goodbye

Waving boughs so slowly dance

Questioning why

 

Fate must have a reason

Why else endure the season

Of hollow soul

The ground on which we leave on

How strangely fuels the season

Of hollow soul

La la la la la la la

La la la la la la la

Fate must have a reason

Why else endure the season

Of hollow soul

Hollow soul

 

Fate must have a reason

Why else endure the season

Of hollow soul

La la la la la la la

La la la la la la la

Fate must have a reason

Why else endure the season

Of hollow soul

La la la la la la la

La la la la la la la

Fate must have a reason

Why else endure the season

Of hollow soul

Hollow soul

 

OUTSIDE MYSELF

 

A thin ice

Covers my soul

My body's frozen

And my heart is cold

And still

So much about me is raw

I search for a place to unthaw

 

And something in me

Broods love into fear

It veils my vision, leaves my thoughts unclear

My eyes

From blue turn to grey

Hoping to mask what they say

 

I've been outside myself for so long

Any feeling I had is close to gone

I've been outside myself for so long

So long

 

I have been

In a storm of the sun

Basking, senseless to what I've become

A fool

To worship just light

When after all, it follows night

 

I've been outside myself

For so long

Any feeling I had is close to gone

I've been outside my self

For so long

 

I've been outside myself for so long

Any feeling I had is

Close to gone

I've been outside myself

For so long

So long

TEARS OF LOVE'S RECALL

 

Love

Thing of might and dread

Stays the savior and poison to all

Of heart and head

 

Love

Force of death and birth

Still lies naked when next to the truth

So spins the earth

 

The tears of love's recall

Like blood to

Chocolate fall

 

And love

The common salt of thirst

Runs like water that cuts through the lives

Of blessed and cursed

 

The tears of love's recall

Like blood to chocolate fall

 

Tears of love's recall

Like blood to chocolate

Fall

 

CONSTANT CRAVING

 

Even through the darkest phase

Be it thick or thin

Always someone marches brave

Here beneath my skin

 

And constant craving

Has always been

 

Maybe a great magnet pulls

All souls towards truth

Or maybe it is life itself

That feeds wisdom

To its youth

 

Constant craving

Has always been

 

Craving

Ah ha

Constant craving

Has always been

Has always been

 

Constant craving

Has always been

Constant craving

Has always been

 

Craving

Ah ha

Constant craving

Has always been

Has always been

Has always been

Has always been

Has always been

Has always been
