Life After Life-The Pains of Being Pure at Heart

[00:22.320]I still care about Christian [00:25.830]Does he care about me? [00:28.880]When I see him around he looks down [00:31.650]Afraid of what he'll see [00:34.810]And I know there's a heaven [00:37.800]That he's trying to find [00:40.060]But it's hell that he makes, callous and afraid [00:43.350]Of the ones he's left behind [00:56.910]And the touch of his body, so tender and cruel [01:03.300]When he made me play girlfriend [01:05.470]There wasn't much I could do [01:09.030]He'd come to my garret [01:11.570]And we'd make something like love [01:13.970]But the flowers he gave me have wilted [01:16.980]But I keep them, like I keep him [01:21.360]He wants a life after life [01:26.090]But the world he didn't love [01:28.810]And the one he didn't love [01:31.170]Should have been [01:33.790]Night after night [01:36.400]But the world he didn't love [01:39.910]And the one he didn't love [01:42.570]Will never know [01:49.040]Paradise [01:55.450]When he makes his confessions [01:57.950]When he says his prayers [02:00.000]And kneels beside his bed in the moonlight [02:03.120]Is a part of me there? [02:06.720]He's taken up with a new girl [02:09.080]Who keeps his conscience clean [02:11.290]And tells him he's a keeper [02:14.210]Though I don't know if he knows what that means [02:18.250]He wants a life after life [02:23.420]But the world he didn't love [02:25.820]And the one he didn't love [02:28.460]Should have been [02:31.410]Night after night [02:34.570]But the world he didn't love [02:37.240]And the one he didn't love [02:39.910]Will never know [02:46.500]Paradise [03:03.860]But the world he didn't love [03:06.670]And the one he didn't love [03:08.990]Should have been [03:14.530]But the world he didn't love [03:18.090]And the one he didn't love [03:20.340]Will never know [03:25.850]Paradise [03:38.710]Paradise
