With a bend in my knees
With a bend in my heart
To deliver it
Land in some mystic
Description of love
And to rake up your leaves

Whatever I remember
The little I recall
You never see what's coming
You get up when you fall
And only if your song holds a weary lie
Then deliver me from trying

It's like a bonfire blues
To a shivering God
To deliver it
Right at the moment
When everyone's gone
But a song, but a dance

The lesson I remember
The prophet I recall
The demon is in the hilltop
No stopping there at all
And only if your song holds a weary lie
Then deliver me from trying

With a bend in the knees
With a bend in my heart
To deliver it
Still drunk in the comfort
From visions of love
And to rake up the leaves

Whatever I remember
To never know it all
There's pleasure on the hilltop
Don't go there, I recall
And only if our song holds a weary lie

Whatever I remember
The little I recall
You never see what's coming
You get up when you fall
And only if your song holds a weary lie
Then deliver me from trying
