Tainted Love
Tainted love
Our love is usual
Some would say toxic
We like to say passionate
Like thorns on a rose
Bleeding as I pull them from the rosebush
Can’t you see I bleed for you?
The pain is our love
Tugging on the strings
Our family praying that our love will come unraveled
Baby our love is so fragile
Yet we dance stomping on eggshells
Ignoring the warnings
Flashing like a sign warning
Watch out!!
We pay no mind
Into danger we ride
Swaying to our own rhythm
As we love till the night fades
Till the night sky
Gives birth to the sunlight
Coming off this high
Are you ready for another taste?
Open your mouth
Open your mind
Open your heart
As I invade your innermost parts
Taking with me a part of you
Leaving behind a part of me
Slowly we peel back this fake image
To reveal our true faces
For the first time
We now see eye to eye
Let us run into the sun
The burning heat
Is unmatched by the fire from our desires
Unmatched by our tainted love
The question remains
Are you an angel from heaven?
Did the devil send to collect his prize?
You said there will be no lies
Speak the truth
Hush now as I listen to your heart say
The words your mouth can not
Will this stop me from loving you?
I am not gypsy
Your cards I can not read
Our future is unknown
By the way we love
It has already been shown
Like a pistol blown
A bullet straight to the heart
By these words
I bleed out my soul
To you a gift
Open it if you must
Into your hand I trust
Is this real or straight lust?
