Lyrics Torture - Liz Longley

Torture

Being without you
Is being locked in a room
An eternal afternoon, set to a song sung out of tune
Over and over again
Why does it feel like torture
Not to have your skin on mine?
How I lived before you loved me
And now I’m dying all the time
All my pleasure choked by pain
Since I let you get away
I should’ve tied you to the bed
When I had you in the flesh
Now I’m chained to the memories
How the music played loud
How my hair came down
How you kissed my mouth
With a fire I can’t put out
Why does it feel like torture
Not to have your skin on mine?
How I lived before you loved me
And now I’m dying all the time
I’m only mad for you, my love
I’m holding on for you, my love
I’m only mad for you
It’s all for you
Why does it feel like torture
Not to have your skin on mine?
How I lived before you loved me
Now I’m dying
How I lived before you loved me?
And now I’m dying
How I lived before you loved me?
And now I’m dying all the time
