A Single Wish

There is a song by This Mortal Coil called A Single Wish. The lyrics to it are difficult to hear, and neither the liner notes nor the internet seem willing to define them. So I decided to write them down as I hear them.

 

I wonder, alone here
The sound
The living now
The longing’s end
It’ll end in tears

And now as follows
Let’s hide a single wish

The living love, forever
Oh, no, it’ll end in tears
It’ll end in tears

Are these lyrics incomplete, or are they intentional?
