Dead For Love
The only rule to stay alive Just keep breathing you'll be fine You know she's pulling up outside The car lights crawl across the curtain So put the gun back on the wall Take the suitcase from the wardrobe There's a dead man on the floor He's not going anywhere You're moving to the door And everything he ever did He only ever did for love And everything he ever said Was only ever said for love And now, now he lies dead, He's dead for love His mind's at ease, he sleeps in peace Your reflection in her eyes You just don't recognise And soon you'll realise This guy's not going anywhere Now he's done with you once more Race with the shadows to the door A guy like this needs to be sure No one was there was there when the devil rode out before And everything he ever did He only ever did for love SongtexteAnd everything he ever said Was only ever said for love And now, now he lies dead, Oh he's dead for love His mind's at ease, he sleeps in peace In English shadows you will walk tall And there you'll stay until you fall And when the final hour arrives It's only lovers left alive Wretched souls and gangsters' molls Beyond the valley of the dolls The story they will never tell Because their lips are sealed And everything you ever did You only ever did for love And everything you ever said You only ever said for love And now, now he lies dead, Oh he's dead for love Your mind's at ease, you sleep in peace And everything you ever did You only ever did for love And everything you ever said You only ever said for love And now, now he lies dead, Oh he's dead for love Your mind's at ease, you sleep in peace (Thanks to Siobhan for these lyrics) Aus Songtexte Mania
