I should have known I’d leave alone Just goes to show That the blood you bleed is just the blood you own We were a pair But I saw you there Too much to bear You were my life, but life was far away from fair Was I stupid to love you? Was I reckless to help? Was it obvious to everybody else That I’ve fallen for a lie? You were never on my side Fool me once, fool me twice Are you death or paradise? Now you’ll never see me cry There’s just no time to die ---

Keys that jingle in your pocket As they jangle in your head Why does summer go so quickly? Was it something that you said? Lovers walk along the shore And leave their footprints in the sand Is the sound of distant drumming Just the fingers of your hand? Picture hanging in a hallway Or the fragment of a song Half-remembered names and faces But do whom do they belong? When you knew that it was over Were you suddenly aware That the autumn leaves were turning To the color of her hair? ---

I was scared and fearing for my life. I was shakin’ like a leaf on a tree. ‘Cause he was lean, mean, Big and bad, Lord, Pointin’ that gun at me. Oh “Wait a minute, mister, I didn’t even kiss her. Don’t want no trouble with you. And I know you don’t owe me But I wish you’d let me Ask one favor from you.” “Oh, won’t you give me three steps, Gimme three steps a-mister, Gimme three steps towards the door? Gimme three steps Gimme three steps a-mister, And you’ll never see a-me no more For sure.” ---
