lyrics

WRONG
(1989)

When I was younger I loved a woman
Her hair was every colour of golden
We lay in fields and kissed endlessly
Her mouth was an oasis
A sweet flower
A fruit of exquisite taste and softness
Her eyes spoke every language known on earth

I am young and I love that woman who talks to spiders
The world hears us
The world hears us and creates rippling brooks
The fields witness our delight in each other

We are two women in love
Nature uses us for a mirror and likes what she sees
Humanity looks at us and tells us
We're wrong
