The Powers That Be — текст песни (Anna Waronker)

It was a time and place
The way that you held my face
Until it was black and blue
When I gave it all to you

The way that you`d always pace
Whenever you felt my grace
It`s all coming back to me

It`s all coming back to me
With all the powers that be
I`d be dead to you right now
I`m glad I never held my breath too long
And I`m glad I knew we`d part before death
Or death that you`d give me

"I`ll give you clothes and food"
When you asked me to accompany you
I`m glad I learned to trust my intuition
And not trust your selfish attitude
You can be so rude

It`s all coming back to me
With all the powers that be
I`d be dead to you right now
I`m glad I never held my breath too long
And I`m glad I knew we`d part before death
Or death that you`d give me
