Love Of My Life - Anna Calvi

I cut my lip on a jewel-piece eye

Gonna lick and lick it dry

Spit up blood, take another sweet bite

I’ll hold you down and I’ll hold you too tight

Only here on the sleeve of my heart

It’s the hand that makes its mark

See the memories 'round my neck

Spilling out of my chest saying

Got to be the love of my life

I’m haunted by a holy desire

Put a shadow on an inch of your thigh

Heaven’s such a simple lie

I’ll hold you down and I’ll hold you too tight

I’m gonna soak my hands in milk

Oh the wails, some head like silk

I’m bloody, I’m bloody and dry

'Cause your heart won’t sing to me

Got to be the love of my life

Got to be the love of my life

Through the passages and through the streets

You whisper to me with a breath of heat

Let’s be strangers in the night

The rest was silence there was no reply

The rest was silence there was no reply

The rest was silence…

She’s got to be the love of my life
