Mandalay - This Life

(spoken: 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 colourblind days to fill. You never will (Take this life) Take this life, take it all in your hands. You were mine, I could smile (spoken:You understand, fine) again I dream; You come to me, (Come back to me) and comfort me. Now I dream. Where did this time go? Where did this time go? Did your love go? I know, you had 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 (spoken:You understand, fine) (Take this life) Take this life, take it all in your hands. You were mine, I could smile (spoken:You understand, fine) again Just what you said was cold advice I discovered sticks go with knives I discovered I could've died 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 (spoken:You understand, fine) (Take this life) Take this life, take it all in your hands. You were mine, I could smile again.
