Feast of Hammers (Sheet Music) |
8 days ago he was down at my window |
screaming my name in the air |
and by the sight I could tell he’d been drinking |
and when drunk you don’t usually care |
that my situation had altered quite sharply |
now my kisses don’t come for free |
so throw down my hair for my lover to bear |
while my husband he wakes from his sleep and says |
love will bring you nothing but despair |
love will fill you with nothing but regret |
out the next day on a fine sunny Sunday |
walking the dog in the park |
he questioned my history and oh-what-a-mystery |
who was that man in the dark? |
a jilted ex-lover but bad was my cover |
I am not one to outsmart |
but then he was silent I swallowed my lie |
now be still my beating heart cos |
love will bring you nothing but despair |
love will fill you with nothing but regret |
but he was God to me |
he was God to me |
Back in my bed I was troubled with dreams |
while my husband slept soundly alone |
I wake at the breaking of glass and an aching that’s |
ringing through all of my bones |
I moved through the dark now I know this by heart |
In a trance I was that’s what I’ll say |
Draw blood from my feet every step is so sweet |
As I reached for his neck where he lay |
In the seconds that pass my dear breathing his last |
In pity I sink to the floor |
Now cut off my hair and with hours to spare |
I burn the house down |
love will bring you nothing but despair |
love will fill you with nothing but regret |
but he was God to me |
he was God to me |
