Year:1999 Length:163 sec

Lyrics:

Many of the songs on 69 Love Songs feature very sparse or limited instrumentation. Track 10 of volume one is such an example. Songwriter Stephin Merritt sings a somber poem over guitar and lute.The cactus where your heart should be
Has lovely little flowers
So though it's always pricking me
My ardor never sours
The cactus where your heart once was
Has power to rend and flay
I stick because I'm stuck, because
I just can't tear myself away
