Black Lillies - Two Hearts Down lyrics

rate me

If I had a bottle

I'd surely drink it on down

No more pain, goodbye shame

Then I'd head into town

I'd walk all along the fine people

Smile say "how do you do?"

They wouldn't know and I wouldn't show

The truth that I'm telling you

Chorus

Cause I'll not drink from the bottle

And I'll not walk through the town

Four cold walls and a window

One shot two hearts down

Verse 2

Once I was a young man

Hair and eyes a glow

I met a girl, the prettiest curls

I had to make her my own

She was promised to another

And I knew her heart was true

I couldn't stand the sight of his hand

For I loved her two

(Chorus)

Verse 3

I took my father's rifle

And I waited quite until

One cold shot through love's embrace

Left them quiet and still

(Chorus) (2x)

One shot two hearts down (2x)
