Oh the light, the blessed light blinds us all
Comes and goes, no-one knows when they will fall
Oh reckless love, don't you hang around my door
Leave me undone more than I was before
So please stay away
If I let you down, treat you unkind
No that's not me, just my second mind
Oh the rose, the blushing rose, you waste your scent
Upon the mold, they rise and fall, they came and went
But oh reckless love, just look what you have done
You push and shove, send me on the run
So please stay away
If I let you down, treat you unkind
No that's not me, just my second mind
I came to see you but the way was closed
A picture frame around your neck
I tried to reach you but you're so hard to hold
But your pride I must protect
Oh if I let you down, treat you unkind
No that's not me, just my second mind
Comes and goes, no-one knows when they will fall
Oh reckless love, don't you hang around my door
Leave me undone more than I was before
So please stay away
If I let you down, treat you unkind
No that's not me, just my second mind
Oh the rose, the blushing rose, you waste your scent
Upon the mold, they rise and fall, they came and went
But oh reckless love, just look what you have done
You push and shove, send me on the run
So please stay away
If I let you down, treat you unkind
No that's not me, just my second mind
I came to see you but the way was closed
A picture frame around your neck
I tried to reach you but you're so hard to hold
But your pride I must protect
Oh if I let you down, treat you unkind
No that's not me, just my second mind
