Lyrics:
Seems like only yesterday I left my mind behind Down in the gypsy cafe With a friend of a friend of mine She sat with a baby heavy on her knee Yet spoke of life most free from slavery With eyes that showed no trace of misery A phrase in connection first with she occurred That love is just a fou letter word Outside a rambling store-front window Cats meowed to the break of day Me, I kept my mouth shut To you I had no words to say My experience was limited and underfed You were talking while I hid To the one who was the father of your kid You probably didn't think I did, but I heard you say That love is just a four letter word I said goodbye unnoticed Pushed forth into my own games Drifting in and out of lifetimes Unmentionable by name Searching for my double, looking for Complete evaporation to the core Though I tried and failed at finding any door I must have thought that there was nothing more absurd than That love is just a four letter word Though I never knew just what you meant When you were speaking to your man I can only think in terms of me And now I understand After waking enough times to think I see The holy kiss that's supposed to last eternity Blow up in smoke, its destiny, falls on strangers, travels free Yes, I know now, traps are only set by me And I do not really need to be assured That love is just a four letter word Strange it is to be beside you Many years and tables turned You'd probably not believe me If I told you all I've learned And it is very, very weird indeed yo hear words like forever plead Those ships run through my mind, I cannot cheat It's like looking in the teacher's face complete I can say nothing to you but repeat what I heard That love is just a four letter word
