Emilíana Torrini - Gun lyrics
[Emilíana Torrini - Gun lyrics]
Every day I see you looking in
I'll be the smoothest thing
To touch your skin
You're longing to be loved but you're alone
And your longing makes you shiver to the bone
I know your mamma told
You nothing of importance
No, your daddy taught you
Nothing you could learn
You've had your sisters weighing
On your pockets and your priest he tries so
Hard to get you turned
Maybe you've been living lonely
While your woman has a fellow on the side
Your kids keep telling jokes
That ain't that funny
And you've failed in everything
That comes to mind
Now you see I'm only here to let you know
That I love you and I'll never let you go
So take me in the hand, don't walk on by
For the life this has to offer twists inside
Now your woman has a fellow in your bed
You have to go, you have to move right in
And the ring on your finger
Would leave another scar
But the joke's on her
She hasn't seen it all!
So you shot him up close and
You shot him in the face
And your woman looked on and
Your children they embraced
And the candle's still burning and
The fire's roaring fire
You moved right in, yeah you moved right in
Stop your shaking, sweating
Whining and regretting
You're making a scene that is
Going to get you caught
Hey look me in the barrell and
Tell me that you love me
Yes this is a kiss that I
Swear will blow your mind
I'll be the smoothest thing
To touch your skin
You're longing to be loved but you're alone
And your longing makes you shiver to the bone
I know your mamma told
You nothing of importance
No, your daddy taught you
Nothing you could learn
You've had your sisters weighing
On your pockets and your priest he tries so
Hard to get you turned
Maybe you've been living lonely
While your woman has a fellow on the side
Your kids keep telling jokes
That ain't that funny
And you've failed in everything
That comes to mind
Now you see I'm only here to let you know
That I love you and I'll never let you go
So take me in the hand, don't walk on by
For the life this has to offer twists inside
Now your woman has a fellow in your bed
You have to go, you have to move right in
And the ring on your finger
Would leave another scar
But the joke's on her
She hasn't seen it all!
So you shot him up close and
You shot him in the face
And your woman looked on and
Your children they embraced
And the candle's still burning and
The fire's roaring fire
You moved right in, yeah you moved right in
Stop your shaking, sweating
Whining and regretting
You're making a scene that is
Going to get you caught
Hey look me in the barrell and
Tell me that you love me
Yes this is a kiss that I
Swear will blow your mind
