called my lover on the telephone
I could tell she was not alone
she was affectionate but still
I could feel my fingers chill
and I was speaking into empty space
speaaking back to me her words hit my face,
faking concern she arsked if I was okay
there and then I felt her fading away
I injured woman so many times
then departed from the scene of the crime
excuse me madame but I'm down on my knees
and if I'm honest that is where I should be
and I'm learning there are deeper laws
and there is blood burried in the hill
and honest woman said it better than me
how a heart can decide to kill
I injured woman so many times
then departed from the scene of the crime
excuse me madame but I'm down on my knees
and if I'm honest that is where I should be
now I leave the hotel room
check there's nothing left behind
nothing but pain and vour parfume
and a love no longer blind
I injured woman so many times
then departed from the scene of the crime
excuse me madame but I'm down on my knees
and if I'm honest that is where I should be
I injured woman so many times
then departed from the scene of the crime
excuse me madame but I'm down on my knees
and if I'm honest that is where I should be
called my lover on the telephone
