Rufus Wainwright
Go or Go Ahead
[Verse 1]
Thank you for this bitter knowledge
Guardian angels who left me stranded
It was worth it, feeling abandoned
Makes one hardened
But what has happened to love?

[Verse 2]
You got me writing lyrics on postcards
Then in the evenings looking at stars
But the brightest of the planets is Mars
And what has happened to love?

[Verse 3]
So I will opt for the big white limo
Vanity fairgrounds and rebel angels
You can't be trusted with feathers so hollow
You're heaven's invention, steel-eyed vampires of love
You see over me

[Pre-Chorus]
I'll never know what
You have shown to other eyes

[Chorus]
Go, or go ahead and surprise me
Signs you've lead the way to a mirage
Go, or go ahead and just try me
[Post-Chorus]
What has happened to love
What has happened to love
What has happened to love

[Verse 4]
Nowhere's now here, smelling of junipers
Fell off the hay bales, I'm over the rainbows
But, oh Medusa, kiss me and crucify
This unholy notion of the mythic powers of love

[Pre-Chorus]
Look at her eyes, look at her eyes
Forget about the ones that are crying
Look at her eyes, look at her eyes
Forget about the ones that are crying

[Chorus]
Go, or go ahead
Go, or go ahead
Go, or go ahead
And surprise me

[Chorus]
Go, or go ahead
Go, or go ahead
Go, or go ahead
Go, or go ahead
And just try me
[Outro]
What has happened to love
