Today is none of our concern 
That rewarding cigarette 
That burns slowly by the bed 
Fills the room with mystery 
The apple ripens on the tree 
That protected seal of love 
Broken by the flame of fun 
Lying back with Exodus 
In the arms of lovers trust 

That romantic dance of light 
From the curtain broken night 
Shadows fall on mystery 
Love has ripened here for me 
Stubbing out the cigarette 
I see the clothes beside the bed 
As the half light of the day 
Pulls the sheet up once again 

As the phone hangs by the cord 
As the streets begin to fill 
There's no distance anymore 
There's no wanting when you will 
Will be sleeping through the day 
As the world around us turns 
As the phone hangs by the cord 
Today is none of our concern
