The Boots

You look great in those boots But can you walk Walk all over me Straight up to your thighs One kiss and I’ll surely die Come on, give me the eye No point asking why Okay, I want inside you Five hundred dollars doesn’t lie You can say you love me That way, we’ll both get by Life is so short between your thighs Do you feel it Deep inside Makes you want to cry I know you hate me But you made the pact Now it’s time to act You look great in those boots But can you walk Walk all over me Now it’s the talking part Two strangers, heart-to-heart Truths and lies Smokes and why’s I need to see you in my mind, you’ll get me through the tough times You need the money Seems rather funny, no money where I’m going How about you, kids and all How we fall Two people in the night Just getting through As you do Your boots on the floor The last glimpse as I close the door. It’s raining, death on the hill No time for the final kill You did look great in those boots Will you walk for the final time All over me.

Just a guy dying at the front, remembering a good time before he went.
