He Said He Had A Story - The Dear Hunter

There was a silver circle sign

And she was standing at the door

We pressed our way right through the crowd

Our pace was quickened to her floor

There was a single feigning light

And there was silk all on the walls

She had a lot of love to give

I was prepared to take it all

(But what did she do next?)

She had disrobed and she was

Waiting on the floor

She asked me what it was I want

I thought that I wanted it all

(What did you say?)

I said stand up and move your body to the bed

She quickly stood and slowly turned

And here’s exactly what she said …

«Please be soft and sweet to me

This life has not been good, you see

It’s hard with such a history

Buried in misery»

(And what did you do next?)

I broke a smile, reminding that I paid

Her well.

Her lips returned, and then I felt

Her hands unbuckling my belt

(So was it good?)

It felt like heaven but I’m sure she was in

Hell.

I made it clear that I’d get my money’s

Worth out of the goods she sells

Break and bind yourself to me

Deliver what you sold you see that

I will only take from you

And use it up.

I’ll use you up

What was your name?
