Mrs. Jaded loved a man whose passion had faded away,
So, she waited for the day when the fires returned, but it never came.
What she said was...
Love's like the seasons, remember,
Love's promised spring and summer will melt away with December,
See for yourself, see for yourself.
Mr. Vision saw the future then found religion sacred,
Glitter-free salvation took the patience of saints, so he cursed the time he wasted away.
What he said was...
Faith's like the flowing waters,
A fierce and raging river will calm and still in light weather,
Think for yourself,
Speak for yourself,
See if it's true, oh.
Just like the seasons untended life bursts in spring and summer, but fades away like these embers.
The world's elusive, remember,
Where love's the leaf, faith, and the river, what's born as flame dies in ember,
See for yourself,
See for yourself,
See for yourself.
