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
