Mandalay This Life lyrics

You couldn't even bring yourself to stay, oh no
You had to go, spoil it all
I know you had to go

Now I find these endlessly
Colorblind 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

But now I dream
Where did this time go?
Where did this time go?
Did your love go?

I know you have 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
Again

Just what you said was cold advice
I discovered sticks go with knives
I discovered I could've die 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
