Tongue Like A Knife |
The head of a hunt on the wall by a painting |
An upright piano stood locked by the door |
In through the window |
The light was fast fading |
While I spilt my whiskey |
All over the floor |
Making a mess of my words so I was trying |
To impress the empress with |
My wimpy tales |
Fanning her face from cigar smoke |
And sighing |
I had come close to be miles |
From her trail |
She was the jewel that |
Sparkled in darkness |
She was the love |
Of everyones life |
She was the catch at Everyones parties |
She was the one with a tongue |
Like a knife |
Her bosoms curved perfectly |
Lit by the fire |
My mind launched away |
In a sea of its own |
Her grace and her tightness |
I had to admire |
Through a whores breath of stories |
I happily told |
Trespassing my hand |
Fell into hot water |
She shot like a bullet |
Right out of her chair |
She led me away and i Was then slaughtered |
By the warmth of her body |
And her love and care |
Her tongue cut away |
And the wounds slowly opened |
I lay on the sails of the |
Ship of romance |
Drunk as I could be and |
Broker than broken and |
The head of my hunt |
Was there in my hands |
