One night you got into my head With a cold bright fear that struck me dead And your body lay heavy in our bed With those blood-stained tears on your chest Oh, love is never what it was Never bold enough to carry us In the beginning I wanted you so much Fire then dirt then dust So, love, would you save her? Was she everything you bet upon your life? So, love, did you need her? Was it all because you fell against the knife? And, love, can you hold her? Do you see her in the shadow of the night? So, love, have you lost her? Does it tear you up inside? One day I'll sleep and never wake And the air will take the colour from my face This is how I'll pay for my mistakes Hold things with her and break So, love, would you save her? Was she everything you bet upon your life? So, love, did you need her? Was it all because you fell against the knife? And, love, can you hold her? Do you see her in the shadow of the night? So, love, have you lost her? Does it tear you up inside? And who will hold your hand tonight? And who will hold your hand tonight? Did you work so hard to keep her? Did you try so hard to spite? Was it her cold heart that freed her from a hole so tight? So, love, would you save her? Was she everything you bet upon your life? So, love, did you need her? Was it all because you fell against the knife? And, love, can you hold her? Do you see her in the shadow of the night? So, love, have you lost her? Does it tear you up inside? Does it tear you up inside?
