Rufus Wainwright › Lyrics › Crumb By Crumb

Crumb by crumb in this big black forest
You I'll believe
Crumb by crumb in this big black forest
You I'll believe

Maybe in you I'll believe
Maybe I'll believe in you
The future of
My understanding of love

Many a time I've before
Before I've many a time
Knocked a stranger's door
Discretion, hardly I'm known for

Probably has nothing to
Nothing at all in the world
To do with you
Just your lower lip on the floor

But baby, I gotta get through
Crumb by crumb in this big black forest
Maybe in you I'll believe
Maybe I'll believe in you

Suddenly I'm not myself
Behind the facade is a lonely fountain, here
Suddenly you are the one
Who opens the gates to this unruly garden
Come and let this man let go young

'Cause baby, I got to get through
Crumb by crumb in this big black forest
Maybe in you I'll believe
Maybe I'll believe in you

Suddenly you're not yourself
Behind the facade is a lonely Angel, still
Suddenly I am the one
Who opens the gates to this now gloomy garden
Come and let this man let go

Crumb by crumb in this big black forest
You I'll believe
Crumb by crumb in this big black forest
You I'll believe
Crumb by crumb in this big black forest
You I'll believe
. . .
