I told my friends that life was sweet
I told my friends that life was very sweet
And the cinnamon horses in the turpentine trees
I told my friends some things were good
That love would endure if it could
And the cinnamon horses stroll through the castle ruins
I said we can't love someone
Without hurting someone
And a dozen white vampires
Under a strawberry moon
You said that, you said that
You said that, oh
You said that, you said that
The strawberry moon
'Cause love asks for nothing
But love costs everything
And the cinnamon horses dance beneath a strawberry moon
And I said we should not hurt one another
Still we hurt one another
And a dozen white vampires
Sun themselves in the castle ruins
You said that, you said that
You said that, oh
You said that, you said that
You said that, oh
I told my friends that life was sweet
I told my friends life was very sweet
You said that, you said that
In the castle ruins
I told my friends that life was good
That love would endure if it could
You said that, you said that
You said that, oh
You said that, you said that
You said that, oh
You said that, you said that
You said that, oh
You said that, you said that
You said that, oh
