Her face is down
|
And her fingers hang loose
|
Like horsetail cigarettes
|
Looks like half a man is all she gets tonight
|
My little Hercules
|
Never hurt anyone
|
And he's the only way of getting home
|
So when you're between her lips
|
And the spine of her bed
|
When everything turns red
|
Well I see red as well
|
When you see the colour of love
|
I see the colour of hell
|
|
I lose myself
|
And I fall away
|
Past the sad and long dog days
|
Through a world in which i don't belong anymore
|
Past the barstool boys
|
Who take and take me anyhow
|
But they never take you away
|
|
So when you fall beneath her sheets
|
I lose my head
|
When everything goes red
|
Well I see red as well
|
When you see the colour of love
|
I see the colour of hell
|
|
Lord, lead me on
|
To a world that I can no longer find
|
My dear you are all the time
|
