Go Or Go Ahead

Rufus Wainwright Rufus Wainwright

Thank you for this bitter knowledge
Guardian angels who left me stranded
It was worth it, feeling abandoned
Makes one hardened, but what has happened to love?

You got me writing lyrics on postcards
Then in the evenings looking at stars
But the brightest of the planets is Mars
What has happened to love?

So I will opt for the big white limo
Vanity fairgrounds and rebel angels
You can't be trusted with feathers so hollow
You're Heaven's invention, steel eyed vampires of love

You see over me
I'll never know what you've shown to other eyes
Go or go ahead and surprise me
Say you've lead the way to a mirage
Go or go ahead and just try me

(What has happened to love?)

Nowheres now here smellin' of junipers
Fell of the hay bales, I'm over the rainbows
But of Medusa, kiss me and crucify
This unholy notion of the mythic power of love

Look in her eyes, look in her eyes
Forget about the ones that are crying
Look in her eyes, look in her eyes
Forget about the ones that are crying

Go or go ahead
Go or go ahead
Go or go ahead and surprise me
Go or go ahead
Go or go ahead
Go or go ahead and just try me

(What has happened to love?)
