lyrics

Never thought I’d find myself at the bottom of a downward spiral
Spinning round
It’s funny what love can do to a clockwork heart
Time had seized.
She left me completely mesmerized with the wind in her hair and
Her tambourine thighs
Then she took my hand and said,
“Let the beat speak tonight.”

Another dirt nap for a pretty face; growing old is such a crime today.
Another dirt nap for a pretty face; how did we ever let it get this way?

Unforgotten, unforgiven… I can’t stand the way the world keeps on spinning

Dance, dance, dance pretty lady.
You were born to move that way.
But the look in your eyes reminds me
Of a Lioness caged.
They expect perfection
And you’re as close as it gets.
Swirling to your swan song, every step defining grace.

Another dirt nap for a pretty face; growing old is such a crime today.
Another dirt nap for a pretty face; how did we ever let it get this way?

Unforgotten, unforgiven… I can’t stand the way the world keeps on spinning

Never thought I’d find myself at the bottom of a bottle
In this dead end town
She managed to get out, but found herself
Six feet down
Wrapped a chain around me and my heart
My goddess and a runaway
It’s burned into my mind
How her smile lit up her face.

Another dirt nap for a pretty face; growing old is such a crime today.
Another dirt nap for a pretty face; how did we ever let it get this way?
Another dirt nap for a pretty face; growing old is such a crime today.
Another dirt nap for a pretty face; how did we ever let it get this way?

Unforgotten, unforgiven… I can’t stand the way the world keeps on spinning
