Venus

Tell me now and I'll understand Does Venus hold you in the palm of her hand Has her blackness touched your very heart She'll smile sweetly as your world falls apart And I just can't quit it babe I just can't stand the pain And I just can't quit it babe I keep running back again Little by little, piece by piece Your defenses have all slipped away And real beauty's such an elusive thing Somewhere down the line you'll have to pay And I just can't quit it babe I just can't stand the pain And I just can't quit it babe I keep running back again Oh no, it's such a cold, cold feeling Cuts my body to the bone Oh no, it's a strange, strange feeling Loves been abandoned and I'm so alone And everyday I see my flame growing dimmer I've nothing left but this very life to save And every night I feel that I'm a winner She's taking me down to the grave And every night she makes me feel like a winner And every night she makes me think I'm a winner Venus smiles and encircles me And wraps me in a soft princely gown Waves of darkness rise like the sea In her addiction I will drown
