Howl

Strength or fame
They will carry you away
He said 'I love you' but he was young
He said 'I love you' but he was wrong

Look around
All the truest lovers never need to make a sound
Have you ever had a lover who took you from gold to grey?
Skin to skin but his heart is miles away...

Then the stars come out to ask the question:
"why are you alone?"
He said 'I love you' but he was wrong
He said 'I love you' but he was young

We howl for love

Been up and I been down
And the saddest people are the most afraid to frown
When touch becomes the crime of a tightening rope
'Cause you're locked in a box, left to suffocate on hope

Then the tears come down and beg the question:
"why don't you just go home?"
He said 'I love you' but he was wrong
He said 'I love you' but he was young, so young!

We howl for love
For love...

When mercy's just an abstract notion
You let me starve outside your door
Goodnight sweet prince, you are not to blame
Who knew we could be wrong?
The moon can't wait for the sun to fall...

Don't fade away–
You're the only one who can supply what you need to stay
He said 'I love you' but he was wrong
He said he loved me but we were ...young
