Faithfully Yours - The Verlaines

I would never have dreaded the sight of your face

If I had got lonely in some other place

But the devil must have intended to divorce me from grace

Oh how like an angel I have fallen

I don’t really remember the depth of my state

I don’t even remember if I question my faith

But I dreamed I wasn’t a human, I was really a snake

Is that any worse than what I woke up to?

I am, you are, all of my dreams come true

Still waters run deep and blue

But it isn’t as deep as the trouble I’m in with you

Someone call me a witness to say I’m insane

Someone tell her my double had taken my place

But the land is lag of a lawyer who would argue my case

And I am both a gaoler and a prisoner

This habit’s older than Adam, the ordinary say

But you ain’t never seen nothing no ordinary way

I can say as I stand here there’s no blood on my face

But if I ever see I know there will be

I am, you are, all of my dreams come true

Still waters run deep and blue

But it isn’t as deep as the trouble I’m in with you
