Bio

Lyrics

Only Lovers Left Alive

She calls me up, asks
Are you not coming ‘round
Been forty days and nights, alone
In this wretched town

And I need you here right now
To kill the violence in my head
You know that loneliness
Is the only thing I dread

I won’t make way
Until the night descends
For a thousand days and nights
I’ll make my amends

And I know that you recall
The last words I said
That losing you my love
Is the only thing I dread

I felt a red hot flame
As I lost clear sight
As your blood run cold
In the rages of the night
It was a Vampire’s kiss
And a Werewolf’s bite
Together we will live forever babe
Until you and I

Are the only lovers left alive
The only lovers left alive
The only lovers left alive
The only lovers left alive

To be with you my love
Is the only thing I crave
You know that I will be
Your eternal slave

I felt a red hot flame
As I lost clear sight
As your blood run cold
In the rages of the night
It was a Vampire’s kiss
And a Werewolf’s bite
Together we will live forever babe
Until you and I

Are the only lovers left alive
The only lovers left alive
The only lovers left alive
The only lovers left alive
