The Nursery Walls
Stephen Duffy
Promises are here to gag you
Our love was the air that suffocates you
And how to begin to get down
From the nursery walls we hang upon?
CHORUS:
I'll be the light
And I'll be the dark surrounding you
All that you need is everything
And you know I tried to be that too
You heard love fades
Well, now you know the love you made
It's life will go
And breaking up is like a death
It's grief you feel at it's last breath
I promise you this
The last one you'll break
Is 'I'll tell you what's wrong -
I won't say we're OK'
