[Instrumental Intro]
[Chorus]
You give me your love, it's a curious love
You give me your heart, it's a curious thing
Our lady of the shipwreck is running through the storm
With her skirts blown back
Hands to the fore
[Post-Chorus]
My love and I go, it's a curious woe
Like dreamers at dawn, awake but not yet
You gimme your heart, it's a curious thing
Gimme your love, it's a curious love
[Instrumental Bridge]
[Refrain]
It burns and it slides
It's a curious ride (Gimme your heart)
Gimme your heart, yeah
Gimme your heart
[Bridge]
My love and I go, yeah, it's a curious ride
We're younger than clouds
Younger than clouds
(Younger than clouds)
(Younger than clouds)
(Younger than clouds)
(Younger than clouds)
(Younger than clouds)
(Younger than clouds)
[Refrain]
It burns and it slides
It's a curious ride
Gimme your heart, yeah
Gimme your heart
[Instrumental Bridge]
[Chorus]
You give me your love, it's a curious love
You give me your heart, it's a curious thing
Our lady of the shipwreck is running through the storm
With her skirts blown back
Hands to the fore
[Post-Chorus]
My love and I go, it's a curious woe
Like dreamers at dawn, awake but not yet
You gimme your heart, it's a curious thing
Gimme your love, it's a curious love
[Instrumental Bridge]
[Post-Chorus]
My love and I go, it's a curious woe
Like dreamers at dawn, awake but not yet
You gimme your heart, it's a curious thing
Gimme your love, it's a curious love
My love and I go, it's a curious woe
Like dreamers at dawn, awake but not yet
You gimme your heart, it's a curious thing
Gimme your love, it's a curious love
[Outro]
(My love and I go, it's a curious woe now)
(Like dreamers at dawn, awake but not yet)
(You gimme your heart, it's a curious thing now)
(Gimme your love, it's a curious love)
(My love and I go, it's a curious woe now)
(Like dreamers at dawn, awake but not yet)
(You gimme your heart, it's a curious thing now)
(Gimme your love, it's a curious—)
