Cover art for Go or Go Ahead lyrics by Rufus Wainwright

...thought I just wanted to correct the lyrics above by putting it into lyrical order:

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?

You got me writing lyrics on postcards Then in the evenings looking at the stars But the brightest of the planets is Mars What has happened to love?

So I will opt for the big white limo Vanity fairgrounds and rebel angels You can't be trusted with feathers so hollow Your heaven's inventions – steel eyed vampires of love

You see over me I'll never know what you have shown to other eyes Go or go ahead and surprise me Say you've lead the way to a mirage Go or go ahead and just try me

Nowhere's now here smelling of junipers Fell of the hay bales and over the rainbows But oh Medusa, kiss me And crucify this unholy notion of the mythic powers of love

Look in her eyes, look in her eyes Forget about the ones that are crying Look in her eyes, look in her eyes Forget about the ones that are crying

Go or go ahead Go or go ahead Go or go ahead and surprise me Go or go ahead Go or go ahead Go or go ahead and just try me

What has happened to love?
