Intro

Verse 1

Richard Wagner's letters to his lover Mathilde were a mess

He should have quit before he had written the address

( )

They made love on the mezzanine her husband was his friend

Vienna in a fugue-state working on a thing

That when he finished it took almost seven hours to sing

( )

He still found time to write to her his heart-exploding words

Chorus

Our love surpassed our love so fast

Our love's all wrong our love goes on and on

Our love became our love by name when I wrote it to you in a song

Our love goes on and on

Our love our love

Verse 2

Kafka in his letters to his lover Milena was alive

But he was waiting for a love that never would arrive

Their rendezvous was singular her husband was his friend

She is a living fire she is a reason to live

She is killing me burning only for him

I'll spend my whole life loving her my heart exploding words
