Anna Calvi - Love of My Life

I cut my lip on a jewel-piece eye
Gonna lick and lick it dry
Spit up blood for another sweet bite
I'll hold you down and I'll hold you tight
Only here, on the sleeve of my heart
It's the hand that makes its mark
See the nerves around my neck
Spilling out on my chest saying
Got to be the love of my life
Copy paste is a sin, always on the run is better
I'm haunted by a holy desire
Put a shadow on an inch of your thigh
Heaven's such a lie
I hold you down and I hold you too tight
And I soak my hands in milk
So the weight of it hit like silk
I am bloody, I'm bloody and dry
'Cause your heart won't sing to me
Got to be the love of my life
Got to be the love of my life
Got to be the love of my life
Through the passages and through the streets
You whisper to me with a breath of heat
Let's be strangers in the night
The rest was silence, there was no reply
The rest was silence, there was no reply
The rest was silence
You got to be the love of my life
