Courage, Robert

He saw a lonely girl
She saw a lonely world
It was a canvas
Slyly careless
A florestan lieder
His was a dying breed
Courage came only from symphonies
A decorative smile to fade out
His concerto in "A"

Come on
A second chance at love
The moments dead
Make you feel like it's never staying

Made love to a baby grand
A tempest refined inside his hands
He had one girl
And one song
Bona fide win and roulade
But he had to give it up
His heart was raw
But his fingers were numb
His first words
Were his last verse
An aesthete since first sun

Come on
A second chance at love
The moments slept
Make you feel like it's never staying
It burned
The first attempt or two
But I remembered you
I need that moment back
Please don't, don't, don't

A tremor for death
Ivories that sliced sedatives in half
Relief in Rhine
Washed away regrets
And let him char before he caressed the ground
Dear artist you will rise again
A last arabesque in faint fashion

Come on
A second chance at love
The moments dead
Make you feel like it's never staying
It burned
The first attempt or two
But I remembered you
I need that moment back
Please don't, don't forget

He woke
A final view of blue
Dear cordias
Wet rouge
Relieve romance to graves
Please, please don't forget
