Jonathan Jackson - Twist Of Barbwire Lyrics
I said, I love you 'til you don't know you're bornI said, I love you 'til the far side of dawnBut in the morning, if you must leaveDon't leave with your apologiesAnd if you come back, if I liked you at allRemember I liked you to fall on your kneesLiar, liar, you're my last desireThought your kind of love was just a thorn on a roseTried hard to be faithful, not hard enough I supposeI tried hard to drown with a hum and a drumIn a pretty drug slum mire, tried bearing your sighsAnd your sneers and your frownTried wearing your jewels, your heels and your crownBut it was nothing but a twist of barbwireIt was nothing but a twist of barbwireIt was nothing but a twist of barbwireYou say I promised I'd be constantly cleanDid you think that I say what I meanAnd now, you're keening, and you have to decideWill you open your legs or your eyesAnd do you pray now, 'cause I pray all the timeAs the soul can't escape what the heart may disguiseLiar, liar, you're my last desireThought your kind of love was just a thorn on a roseTried hard to be faithful, not hard enough I supposeI tried hard to drown with a hum and a drumIn a pretty drug slum mire, tried bearing your sighsAnd your sneers and your frownTried wearing your jewels, your heels and your crownBut it was nothing but a twist of barbwireIt was nothing but a twist of barbwireIt was nothing but a twist of barbwire
