lyrics

just like cain and abel
love does funny things
the love for a father sealed a fate

for you i would not kill
for you i would not take
for you will never need or want again

It comes and goes in waves
Like an endless sea of days
Despite myself you still love me anyway

just like abe and isaac
love does funny things
the love of a father sealed a fate

for all my gains and losses
counted through the years
you are the treasure of my life

It comes and goes in waves
Like an endless sea of days
Despite myself you still love me anyway
