Unfinished Business
Wednesday, June 23, 2010 - 07:08
Just give me a second, darling, to clear my head
Just put down those scissors, baby, on this single bed
The sand in the hour glass is running low
I came through thunder, the cold, wind, the rain and the snow
To find you awake by your window sill
A sight for sore eyes and a view to kill
I broke down in horror at you standing there
The glow from the moon shone through cracks in your hair
I shouted with passion, "I love you so much"
But feeling my skin, it was cold to the touch
You whispered "Where are you?", I questioned your doubt
But soon realised you were talking to God now
You got blood on your hands and I know it's mine
I just need more time
So get of your low, let's dance like we used to
But there's a light in the distance, waiting for me
I will wait for you
So get of your low, let's kiss like we used to
I looked in the mirror but something was wrong
I saw you behind but my reflection was gone
There was smoke in the fireplace as white as the snow
A voice beckoned gently, "Now it's time to go"
A requiem played, as you begged for forgiveness
"Don't touch me", I screamed, "I've got unfinished business"
You got blood on your hands and I know it's mine
I just need more time
So get of your low, let's dance like we used to
But there's a light in the distance, waiting for me
I will wait for you
So get of your low, let's kiss like we used to
You got blood on your hands and I know it's mine
I just need more time
So get of your low, let's dance like we used to
But there's a light in the distance, waiting for me
I will wait for you
So get of your low, let's kiss like we used to
Just put down those scissors, baby, on this single bed
The sand in the hour glass is running low
I came through thunder, the cold, wind, the rain and the snow
To find you awake by your window sill
A sight for sore eyes and a view to kill
I broke down in horror at you standing there
The glow from the moon shone through cracks in your hair
I shouted with passion, "I love you so much"
But feeling my skin, it was cold to the touch
You whispered "Where are you?", I questioned your doubt
But soon realised you were talking to God now
You got blood on your hands and I know it's mine
I just need more time
So get of your low, let's dance like we used to
But there's a light in the distance, waiting for me
I will wait for you
So get of your low, let's kiss like we used to
I looked in the mirror but something was wrong
I saw you behind but my reflection was gone
There was smoke in the fireplace as white as the snow
A voice beckoned gently, "Now it's time to go"
A requiem played, as you begged for forgiveness

You got blood on your hands and I know it's mine

So get of your low, let's dance like we used to
But there's a light in the distance, waiting for me
I will wait for you
So get of your low, let's kiss like we used to
You got blood on your hands and I know it's mine
I just need more time
So get of your low, let's dance like we used to
But there's a light in the distance, waiting for me
I will wait for you
So get of your low, let's kiss like we used to
