John Cale
Lay My Love
[Verse 1]
I am the crow of desperation
I need no fact or validation
I span relentless variation
I scramble in the dust of a failing nation
I was concealed, now I am stirring
And I have waited for this time

[Verse 2]
I am the termite of temptation
I multiply and find my population
I am the wheel, I am the turning
And I will lay my love around you

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
I am the sea of permutation
I live beyond interpretation
I scramble all the names and the combinations
I penetrate the walls of explanations
I am the will, I am the burning
And I will lay my love around you

[Instrumental Break]
[Outro]
I am the will, I am the yearning
And I will lay my love around you
