(I Keep A) Close Watch - John Cale

Never win and never lose

There’s nothing much to choose

Between the right and wrong

Nothing lost and nothing gained

Still things aren’t quite the same

Between you and me

I keep a close watch on this heart of mine

I keep a close watch on this heart of mine

I still hear your voice at night

When I turn out the light

And try to settle down

But there’s nothing much I can do

Because I can’t live without you

Any way at all

I keep a close watch on this heart of mine

I keep a close watch on this heart of mine
