On Love, in Sadness - Jason Mraz

words by jason mraz & jenny keene | music by jason mraz
adapted from the poem "on love, in sadness" by jenny keene

Oh love it's a brittle madness, I sing about it in all my sadness

It's not falsified to say that I found god so inevitably well,

It still exists pale and fine. I can't dismiss

And I won't resist and if I die well at least I tried



And we just lay awake in lust and rust in the rain

And pour over everything we say we trust

It happened again, I listened in thru hallways and thin doors

Where the rivers unwind, rust and in the rain endure.

The rust and the rain are sins

And I'm in like Flynn again



So go on place your order now cause some other time is right around the clock

You can stand in line. it finally begins just around the clock

You can have your pick if your stomach is sick whether you eat or not

And there is just one thing that I never forgot



And we just lay awake in lust and rust in the rain

And pour over everything we say we trust

It happened again, I listened in thru hallways and thin doors

Where the rivers unwind, rust and in the rain so easy

These are the comforts that be



You see well I'm feeling lucky oh well, maybe that's just me

You should be proud of me oh hell if you could only see

That we're gonna grow on up to be, ah yes

We are thick as thieves



Oh love it's a brittle madness, I sing about it in all my sadness

It's not falsified to say that I found god

Inevitably, well it still exists pale and fine I can't dismiss

And I won't resist and if I die well at least I tried



And we just lay awake in lust and rust in the rain

And pour over everything we say we trust

It happened again, I listened in thru hallways and thin doors

Where the rivers unwind and the rust and the rain endure

(the rust and the rain endure. I'm sure.)



I am insofar to know the measure of love isn't loss

Love will never ever be insofar to know the measure of love isn't loss

Love will never ever be lost on me.

Love will never ever be lost on me.
