fondness makes the heart grow absent - the whitlams lyrics
[verse 1]
i woke twice last night, walked to the window
i looked down at the gravestones guarding st patrick’s in the snow
and i thought, if that’s where it all ends
i should get home again, with you
[chorus]
when fondness makes the heart grow absent
i gotta find an orbit a little closer to the ground
yeah, when fondness in my heart is absent
i’m in awe of the sabotage within
[verse 2]
this morning the cliffs of fear still rising from my sleep
a note from the demons is lying accusing at my feet
the parks are empty and the tea’s gone cold
i could slip so easily from the earth’s hold
the life has been lived and the story sold
[chorus]
when fondness makes the heart grow absent
i gotta find an orbit a little closer to the ground
yeah, when fondness in my heart is absent
i’m in awe of the sabotage within
[bridge]
black ice is creeping over the pavement
an overcoat slips to the ground like the angel of death
is playing on prince street
they’re falling and not making a sound
[chorus]
when fondness makes the heart grow absent
i gotta find an orbit a little closer to the ground
when fondness in my heart is absent
i’m in awe of the sabotage within
yeah, when fondness makes the heart grow absent
i gotta find an orbit a little closer to the ground
yeah, when fondness in my heart is absent
i’m in awe of the sabotage within
[outro]
to this evening and what a pleasure
here in balthazar’s red leather, a little
private toast and a vow to die
a natural death in my own good time
