Is this love?

Is this love?

Is this love?

Lost Madonna of the Wasps, I wonder where we crossed

I wonder why she lost me --

Lost Madonna of the Wasps, she's dying in the frost

I wonder what she cost me --

Is this love?

Gone Madonna of the swans, she waves a magic wand

And then she settles on me --

Wise Madonna of the flies, I look into her eyes

And then she recognize me --

Is this love?

Is this love?

Lost Madonna of the Wasps, I wonder where we crossed

I wonder where she lost me --

Lost Madonna of the Wasps, she's lying in the frost

I wonder what she cost me

Is this love?

Is this love?

A pretty,elegant,yet sorrowful lamentation of not being able to obtain your ideal other-your unrequited love.Great mournful yet hopeful keyboards augmented by guest guitarist Peter Buck and his famous Rickenbacker 12 string.

Dear Red Lobster--thanks to you carpet-bombing YouTube with your irritating, unskippable ads, I now will not even buy your gift certificates for my parents, whose generation is the only one that still likes your food.Also--this song is awesome on so many levels!

Fantastic lp from one of the most underrated performers out there. Saw him on Letterman when this lp was current,an lp that should have made that Rolling Stone list of best albums.

I love this song but why the heck does it fade off where it does!? It fades waaay too early, and could at least finish the musical phrase it is going through and fade in a repeat of the phrase. It just sounds like someone went over to my volume knob and turned it down during the song!

I have this on vinyl. Fantastic in all its wonderful strangeness and humor.

WHY is this so hard to find? And why hasn't anyone posted the rather bizzare music video?

Someone posted about Robyn Hitchcock having a twitter account, and now I can't get this song out of my head.
