Just give me a second darling To clear my head Just put down those scissors baby, on this single bed The sand in the hourglass is running low I came through thunder, the cold wind The rain and the snow To find you awake by your windowsill 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've got blood on your hands And I know it's mine I just need more time So get off your low and 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 off your low and 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've got blood on your hands And I know it's mine I just need more time So get off your low and 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 off your low, and let's kiss like we used to
