My body was sharp the dark air clean And outrage my joyful companion Whisperin' women how sweet did they seem Kneelin' for me to command them And time was like water but I was the sea I wouldn't had noticed it passin' Except for the turnin' of night into day And the turnin' of day into cursin'

A lover of women he can't hardly stand He trembles he's bent and he's broken I've fallen it's true but I say to you Hold your tongues until after I've spoken
I was takin' my pride in the pleasures I'd known I laughed and said I'd be forgiven But my laughter turned 'round eyes blazing and said My friend, we're holdin' a wedding I buried my face but it spoke once again The night to the day we're a bindin' And now the dark air is like fire on my skin And even the moonlight is blindingTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
