BEFORE YOU GO

BEFORE YOU GO

Before you go and twist the knife, dear
Lay your plastic on my floor
If my life is yours tonight here,
Then at least I’d bleed no more

CHORUS
We stumbled ever blindly
Never reaching common ground
The years have not been kindly
There’s no hope left to be found

Before you go and sling your arrows
Best to stand and lay your aim
If I am to fall by your bow,
Then I’ll shoulder no more blame

CHORUS

BRIDGE
We buried our love in the ground…

Before you go and wish me dead, dear
Choose the plot where I will lay
I’ve learned better than to shed tears
O’er a love that’s run astray

CHORUS
We stumbled ever blindly
Never reaching common ground
The years have not been kindly
There’s no hope left to be found
We crumbled while politely
Tred over the truth inside
Remained just to seem rightly
Now all that was good has died…
