Bilingual
One, two, three, four
ย
Chilled in the kitchen of a city tomb
The light would flicker like a violent womb
The night was thicker than a smoky fume
Eliza waited in her room
Ben, he loved her like he loved no one
The way she laughed and held a smoking gun
The way she always said, "What's done is done"
And he is not the only one
Love is a gentle thing
Yours is thicker than a velvet ring
Yours is thicker than a velvet ring
A victim here with a sharp, sharp blade
And Ben, he knew how she was gettin' paid
Her water broke, and they would have to wait
ย
And when he knew that she was fooling
He faced the mirror to avoid the thing
We're out of money, and we've sold the bling
And I just wanna take you home
I just wanna take you home
Love is a gentle thing
Yours is thicker than a velvet ring
Yours is thicker than a velvet ring
And I'm wondering
Ring
And I'm wondering
