The Black Lillies — Two Hearts Down lyrics

Lyrics

If I had a bottle
I d surely drink it on down
No more pain, goodbye shame
Then I d head into town
I d walk all along the fine people
Smile say how do you do?
They wouldn t know and I wouldn t show
The truth that I m telling you
Cause I ll not drink from the bottle
And I ll not walk through the town
Four cold walls and a window
One shot two hearts down
Once I was a young man
Hair and eyes a glow
I met a girl, the prettiest curls
I had to make her my own
She was promised to another
And I knew her heart was true
I couldn t stand the sight of his hand
For I loved her two
I took my father s rifle
And I waited quite until
One cold shot through love s embrace
Left them quiet and still
One shot two hearts down (2x)
