(spoken: You couldn't even bring yourself..)
..to stay, oh no
You had to go
Spoil it all
I know you had to go
Now I find these endlessly
Colourblind days
To fill
You never will
(Take this life)
Take this life
Take it all
In your hands
You were mine
I could smile
(spoken:You understand, fine)
Again
I dream;
You come to me
(Come back to me)
And comfort me
Now I dream
Where did this time go?
Where did this time go?
Did your love go?
I know
You had to go
Spoil it all
And now I know
You never will
(Take this life)
Take this life
Take it all
In your hands
You were mine
I could smile
(spoken:You understand, fine)
(Take this life)
Take this life
Take it all
In your hands
You were mine
I could smile
(spoken:You understand, fine)
Again
Just what you said was cold advice
I discovered sticks go with knives
I discovered I could've died in your chains
Still I feel, so won't you stay
Oh, babe
(Take this life)
Take this life
Take it all
In your hands
You were mine
I could smile
(spoken:You understand, fine)
(Take this life)
Take this life
Take it all
In your hands
You were mine
I could smile
Again
