All of Them
This is what she told me once:
-How can a normal person end up killing someone?-
But lately, when she has one too many drinks, she threatens me with death, and I know she's capable.
And now that she's gone
my voice is whispering it:
The road isn't that long
or the pain that slow.
I went to ask the old fakir for advice.
I said: -Show me where I should sleep-.
He turned his back to speak
and in his wounds, I suddenly found the truth.
And he said: -In war, knowing how to be a good loser
is more important than peace and love-.
And ask the man
at the kiosk overlooking the sea.
Ask the woman
who swears she's Lady Di.
Ask anyone,
because all of them will tell you:
-When you're done
you'll have only just begun-.
And my love, in war,
knowing how to be a good loser
is more important
than peace and love.
Much more important
than peace or love.
And remember, my love,
under the sun
the road isn't that long
or the pain that slow.
So long the road,
so slow the pain.
