Tourniquet

I can't believe I'm in so deep,

See no, heed no warnings...

I'm in love and it's so strange,

I can't eat and I can't sleep,

It's the sweetest rorment,

My emotions rearranged...

You dim the lights

As the night is fallin'

Make love all night...

And my heart feels the callin'

You dim the lights...

Through the night till the dawnin'

Make love all night...

Shut up...it fades away,

You're usin' love like a tourniquet.

Shut up...in shades of grey,

abusin' love like a tourniquet.

You are my love, you are my life,

There's no escape this time,

But tighten your grip and the blood goes critical,

Love knows what I got in mind.

It's an open kind of grave

Into which I'm crawlin',

It's a habit hard to break...

In some twisted kind of way

It feels like I'm haunted,

Only so much I can take...

You dim the lights

As the night is fallin'

Make love all night...

And my heart feels the callin'

You dim the lights...

Through the night till the dawnin'

Make love all night...

Shut up...it fades away,

You're usin' love like a tourniquet.

Shut up...in shades of grey,

abusin' love like a tourniquet.

You are my love, you are my life,

There's no escape this time,

But tighten your grip and the blood goes critical,

Love knows what I got in mind.
