Lyrics Emiliana Torrini – Gun

Every day I see you looking in
I’ll be the smoothest thing to touch your skin
You’re longing to be love but you’re alone
N’ your longing makes you shiver to the bone

I know your mama told you nothing of importance
No your daddy taught you nothing you could learn
You’ve had your sisters weighing on your pockets
N’ your priest he tried so hard to get you turned

Maybe you’ve been living lonely
While your woman has a fellow on the side
Your kids keep telling jokes that ain’t that funny
And you failed in everything that comes to mind

You see I’m only here to let you know
That I love you and I’ll never let you go
So take me in the hand don’t walk on by
For the life this has to offer twists inside

Now your woman has her fellow in your bed
You have to go you have to move right in
N’ the ring on your finger would leave another scar
But the joke’s on her she hasn’t seen it all

So you shot him up close n’ you shot him in the face
N’ your woman looked on and your children they embraced
N’ the candle’s still burning and the fire’s roaring fire
You moved right in, yeah you moved right in

Stop shaking, sweating, whining and regretting
You’re making a scene that is gonna get you caught
Hey look me in the barrel and tell me that you love me
Yes this is a kiss that I swear will blow your mind
