Tennis - Matrimony II

Tennis-music.com Album art by Luca Venter // Lyrics: I only have certainty when you hold my hand / there’s so much I don’t understand / baby we’ve been orbiting each other helplessly / I guess that I blacked out but remembered to move my mouth / so much for my vows, more concerned with here and now / no one knows of love that’s slow held like the longest breath / or the gentle pull of gravity that’s being-unto-death / I can’t go on living with a spark that’s only flickering /I only want that tenderness with every moment left / I could never find something better / I even changed my name / by my side in every kind of weather / I’ll never be the same / come closer, you say / black cats in the neighborhood aren’t necessarily a sign of something / you know me so well / there goes the neighborhood / let it all go burning down around us / no one knows of love that’s slow held like the longest breath / or the gentle pull of gravity that’s being-unto- death / I can’t go on living with a spark that’s only flickering / I only want that tenderness with every moment left to give / I could never find something better / I even changed my name / by my side in every kind of weather / I’ll never be the same
