Lyrics

[Verse 1]
She took my heart, left me for dead
And drank my blood, to me, she said
Our secret's worth its weight in gold
But that fire we had, now's turning cold
[Verse 2]
Cut loose like an animal
Fired out like a cannonball
But I waited too long
Yeah, I waited too long
Got high from a holy vein
Crashed down in a hurricane
Love has been here and gone
Love has been here and gone
[Verse 3]
Where did you go?
Where did you run?
I can't erase what you've done
Let's burn the past, forget the truth
You're still loving him, I'm still loving you
[Verse 4]
Cut loose like an animal
Fired out like a cannonball
But I waited too long
Yeah, I waited too long
Got high from a holy vein
Crashed down in a hurricane
Love has been here and gone
Love has been here and gone
[Verse 5]
Cut loose like an animal
Fired out like a cannonball
But I waited too long
Yeah, I waited too long
Got high from a holy vein
Crashed down in a hurricane
Love has been here and gone
Love has been here and gone
[Verse 6]
But I waited too long
For you only
Love has been here and gone
To die slowly
Going under again
So don't follow me
