The Violent Husbands - High Noon lyrics

rate me

it was cold a good time to go

my heart was a brick that broke the smile

the wind was blowin' and so were you

with her as the sun in my eyes

and tainted shades to block her sight

i cocked the gun

i went back to hold up the deal

it was a minute or two before high noon

i knew it was coming soon

i grew restless and you got bored

i never took on a dirty job

i was so dead self-assured

it was time we had to say goodbye

it saved our souls but it took your life

i went back from dead end street

i was pullin' my own strings

there was noone else to tell me how

i walked alone to noone's home

stood before the man who let me in

and showed me my room

i went back to hold up the deal

it was a minute or two before high noon

i knew it will end soon

i grew painfully aware

that the dirty job took me on and

left me dead but self-assured

it was time we had to say goodbye

it saved our souls but it took your life
