You still love him

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
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

So get off your low and let´s dance like we used to
