(The Vinos)
The Vinos

Verse one:
I'd charred my limbs with desire
Your arms wrapped me like barbwire
I rattled upon the rusted bars
Like drunken love in back of cars
With these hands you could always depend
I'd fight anyone until the end

Chorus:
And it turned and turned
Like an open tide
You could never hide
And it turned and turned
It's not you to blame?
It was a distant flame

Verse 2:
It started like this and went until the end of time
I found you once but you were never mine
I Built my life made of sand piled high
Like weary castles that ripped open the sky
And there it bled down at your little feet
There is scattered in those streets

Chorus

Bridge:
Throw out every flower at every hour
Let it swoon and the sea eat the moon
When the storm rages on
and the whiskey's all gone
better kick off your shoes
and tip your hat

Verse 3:
Let the white waves destroy the shore
Let those glass plates hit the floor
I fell into your oceanic eyes
and again believed in your lies
But I fell love with your Monroe hips
They were like sunken ships and jagged cliffs
