Lyrics Gun - The Colorist Orchestra, Emiliana Torrini

Gun

Every day I see you looking in
I’ll be the smoothest thing to touch your skin
You’re longing to be loved but you’re alone
And your longing makes you shiver to the bone
I know your mamma told you nothing of importance
No, your daddy taught you nothing you could learn
You’ve had your sisters weighing on your pockets
And your priest he tries so hard to get you turned
Maybe you’ve been living lonely
While your woman has a fellow on the side
Your kids keep telling jokes that ain’t that funny
And you’ve failed in everything that comes to mind
Now you see I’m only here to let you know
That I love you and I’ll never let you go
So take me in the hand, don’t walk on by
For the life this has to offer twists inside
Now your woman has a fellow in your bed
You have to go, you have to move right in
And the ring on your finger would leave another scar
But the joke’s on her, she hasn’t seen it all!
So you shot him up close and you shot him in the face
And your woman looked on and your children they embraced
And the candle’s still burning and the fire’s roaring fire
You moved right in, yeah you moved right in…
Stop your shaking, sweating, whining and regretting
You’re making a scene that is going to get you caught
Hey look me in the barrell and tell me that you love me
Yes this is a kiss that I swear will blow your mind
