CLIFF RICHARD - Marked With Death lyrics

rate me

How can I bear this? Show me

How can I survive

Trapped in your madness

With no hope of release? Oh -

Do I just wait for

Your demons to arrive?

Blaming me for your ills

While you rest in peace

You are marked with death

By your cruel lies

You deserve all this

You betrayed me

With your final breath

You will still despise

Every tear or kiss

You betrayed me

I shall not be tricked

Into pity for

You must know full well

That I love you

And you can't inflict

Any pain that's more

Than this living hell

But I love you

I see the eyes that deceived

Poor wasted hands growing cold

No lover's comfort

No belief to hold

You have killed yourself

Yours the infernal

Original sin

Mine the misfortune

Of your heartless caprice - oh -

do I just wait for

All your devils to move in?

Blaming me for your death

While you rest in peace

I am marked for life

And the peace I crave

Is a fool's conceit

I am branded

And you'll twist the knife

From beyond the grave

And I fall, retreat

Empty handed

I shall not be tricked

Into pity for

You must know full well

That I love you

And you can't inflict

Any pain that's more

Than this living hell

But I love you

I see the eyes that betrayed

Poor wasted hands growing cold

No lover's comfort

No belief to hold

You are marked with death

How can I convince you

That you broke your own heart?

How can I forgive you

For the murderous part

You played in destroying

Your love and your life

And mine ...

I shall not be tricked

Into pity for

You must know full well

That I love you

And you can't inflict

Any pain that's more

Than this living hell

But I love you

I see the eyes that deceived

Poor wasted hands growing cold

No lover's comfort

No belief to hold

I am marked for life

You are marked with death ...
