1. RARE AND PRECIOUS CHAIN

Do I have to tell you, tell you once again?
Under red lights, on soft nights, it all comes back to you.
Rare and precious chain --
Binds me to your soul round gently pulsing veins.
Shackled tight, feel love's bite coming back to you.

No gold of fools.
No hostage taking.
No engagement rules.
To leave you forsaken.

Tiny beads of sweat --
thin diamond glistening, glistening around your neck,
forgotten rooms, dark catacombs
they all come back to you.

No crock of glittering prizes.
No sharply worded telegram.
No excuses for the word-weary.
No excuses for who I am.

It's a rare and precious chain.
Around your neck I place it, place it once again.
Drawn finger tight, feel love's bite coming back to you.
Under red lights, on soft nights, it all comes back to you.
Rare and precious chain.


2. THIS FREE WILL

She peeled from a stretch black snake
Which slipped up to the hotel door
Darting looks from piercing eyes
The stir of memory and then no more

Well, you know how I have to believe
She can almost remember my name

It's been a long time coming, babe
Long time lose amongst foreign hills
Shaking my faith in this free will

Years ago in a coastal town
Mosquitoes buzzed in her hair
School dress torn and bare feet brown
Then the rains came and she wasn't there

You're closing your doors on me
When you had almost remembered my name

It's been a long time coming, babe
Long time lose amongst foreign hills
Shaking my faith in this free will

Sharp points in an ink black sky
Faint words collide, then are lost
I'll follow you beneath this dome
Win you back at any cost

I know we were children then
But you can almost remember my name

It's been a long time coming, babe
Long time lose amongst foreign hills
Well, let's be children still
Don't shake my faith in this free will

Don't shake my faith in this free will
Don't shake my faith in this free will
Don't shake my faith in this free will
Don't shake my faith in this free will
