These Things Lyrics



These things

what have they in common

Hate, love, aren't they the same

The feelings that I have you for you

The paradox between the two

These things

what they have in common is you

Day, night, both are the same

Spinning thru time & space

Is the universe already full

Full enough of all the fools

Do they know all the answers

To the questions they keep

Carry out the wish of the old and aged

Hear what I say

Can you love me the way I need you to

Ancient lovers often failed the attitude

These things

what have they in common

Fighting and making love

Come hold me to feel the answer

Then silent we'll lay as one

But they, the world, often only hear

what they want to hear

And yet still I give only one answer

Hold me, dear
