He didn't come home till the light of the day He wasn't with her he would say They fought through the morning and all of the day She'd have to kill him to get him to stay
Killing him didn't make the love go away
She gave him everything that she had Changed anything he said was bad Love weighed on her heart like marble stone Flash of the knife, he was gone
Said he would give her the sun and the moon Now all she has is this eight-by-eight room
Killing him didn't make the love go away
She thought of him every night and all of the day Missing the baby she did away Blowing kisses to the concrete sky Hoping they'd reach him in heaven high
Love weighed on her heart like marble stone Flash of the knife, he was gone Said he would give her the sun and the moon Now all she has is this eight-by-eight room
