Acid Ghost – Hide My Face lyrics

What is the content of love?
Look, basically, love is something we can't put our finger on at all
We say, we use such words as warmth, um, tenderness

Uh, all these things, they don't really get to the point
When you're, you're loving somebody
You are simply delighting in that person as such
As if another human organism
In its mental and its physical aspects
Were a piece of music, or a work of art, or a glorious morning

And you go over another person's physical form
And look at it from every possible point of view and play with it
And uh, that's what it's about
It's the adoration of the form of a human being

And you do, you do that adoring in terms of physical contacts
That are, say dancing with your fingers across the skin
Or whatever it may be
This is the nitty gritty, the nub of love
One wants something much more than that
You want to be--played with

That's more like it

[Instrumental]

What is the content of love?

It's a sort of it, part of it, it's incidental
It's a way of saying very strongly, yes I do want to be with you
But, basically, love is something we can't put our finger on at all

[Outro]
This is detective Charles checking in
Looks like we have a victim on the ground
Gunshot wound to the head
Uh, looks like there's some type of, it's like, it's a recorder
A tape recorder or something
Gonna have to listen to this
