Some Mandalay
..to stay, oh no
You had to go
spoil it all.
I know you had to go.
Now I find these endlessly
colourblind days
to fill.
…You never will
Take this life
Take this life,
take it all
in your hands.
You were mine,
I could smile
You understand, fine
again
I dream;
You come to me,
Come back to me
and comfort me.
Now I dream.
Where did this time go?
Where did this time go?
Did your love go?
I know,
you had to go
spoil it all,
and now I know.
You never will.
Take this life
Take this life,
take it all
in your hands.
You were mine,
I could smile
You understand, fine
Take this life
Take this life,
take it all
in your hands.
You were mine,
I could smile
You understand, fine
again
Just what you said was cold advice
I discovered sticks go with knives
I discovered I could’ve died in your chains
Still I feel, so won’t you stay
Oh, babe
Take this life
Take this life,
take it all
in your hands.
You were mine,
I could smile
You understand, fine
Take this life
Take this life,
take it all
in your hands.
You were mine,
I could smile
again.

Mandalay – This Life
===============================================
Come
Like a baby to the breast
Every inch of you to test my skin
You
Deepen cracks and pour in more
Still standing at the door in tears
And I feel
And do you feel
Enough love
Or do you feel
Or do you feel
Enough love is too rare
Still
Leaving me untied in hands
That you tied and locked away alive
Here
I can’t stand another scene
Can’t face another day
In here
And I feel
And do you feel
Enough love
Or do you feel
Or do you feel
Enough love is too rare
Do I feel
Do you feel
Enough love
Or do you feel
Or do you feel
Enough love is too rare
You could weather me if I turned to stone
If I turned to stone something like a statue
You could keep me hidden in your garden
Then no-one need ever know
And I feel
And do you feel
Enough love
Or do you feel
Or do you feel
Enough love is too rare
Do I feel
Do you feel
Enough love
Or do you feel
Or do you feel
Enough love is too rare
===============================================
Mandalay – Enough Love
