Dont give me love, dont give me faith Wisdom nor pride, give innocence instead Dont give me love, Ive had my share Beauty nor rest, give me truth instead A crow flew to me, kept its distance Such a proud creation I saw its soul, envied its pride But needed nothing it had An owl came to me, old and wise Pierced right through my youth I learned its ways, envied its sense But needed nothing it had A dove came to me, had no fear It rested on my arm I touched its calm, envied its love But needed nothing it had A swan of white, she came to me The lake mirrored her beauty sweet I kissed her neck, adored her grace But needed nothing she could give Got to grieve her, got to wreck it Got to grieve her, got to wreck it Got to grieve her, got to wreck it (Chorus)
