Vows slipped like the trail of a dress And the sunlight, treated like an unwanted guest There's blood in my voice, you're name Pressed to my lips, you know it You're in my blood You're in my blood Delicate, as an open wound We sip cold coffee, sheets stripped to ribbons round the room There's blood in my voice, your name Pressed to my lips, you know it You're in my blood You're in my blood You're in my blood You're in my blood You're on my lips, I taste your name Smell of the smoke to calm my blood Scent of the rain and dying flowers Open windows and daylight hours You're on my lips, I feel your hands Smell of smoke to calm my blood Scent of the rain and dying flowers Open window and daylight hours You're in my blood You're in my blood You're in my blood
