One night to be con fused, one night to speed up truth; we had a prom ise made, four hands and then a way.
Both un der in flu ence, we had di vine sense to know what to say; mind is a ra zor blade.
To call for hands of a bove
to lean on would n’t be good e nough
for me, no.
One night of ma gic rush; the start, a sim ple touch.
One night to push and scream,
and then re lief.
Ten days of per fect tunes, the col ours red and blue; we had a prom ise made,
we were in (Eb5)love.
To call for hands of a bove
to lean on would n’t be good e nough
for me, no.

And you,
you knew the hand of the (Abmaj7omit3)dev il.
And you
kept us a wake with (Abmaj7omit3)wolf’s teeth; shar ing diff ’rent heart beats in one night.
