Every Second is a Little Death - Blake Neely & Nashville Recording Orchestra

Every day a little death In the parlor, in the bed In the curtains, in the silver In the buttons, in the bread Every day a little sting In the heart and in the head Every move and every breath And you hardly feel a thing Brings a perfect little death He smiles sweetly, strokes my hair Says he misses me I would murder him right there But first I'd die He talks softly of his wars And his horses and his whores I think love's a dirty business! (So do I) So do I I'm before him on my knees And he kisses me He assumes I'll lose my reason And I do Men are stupid Men are vain Love's disgusting Love's insane A humiliating business (oh, how true) Ah, well Every day a little death (every day a little death) In the parlor, in the bed (in the lips and in the eyes) In the curtains, in the silver In the buttons, in the bread (in the murmurs, in the gestures) (In the pauses, in the sighs) Every day a little sting (every day a little death) In the heart and in the head (in the looks and in the lies) Every move and every breath And you hardly feel a thing Brings a perfect little death

Though i've tried before to tell him Of the feelings I have for him In my heart Every time that I come near him I just loose my nerve like I've done From the start' Cause every little thing he does is magic Every thing he does just turns me on Even though my life before was tragic Now I know my love for him goes on Do I have to tell the story? Of the thousand rainy days Since we first met It's a big enough umbrella But it's always me Who ends up getting wet Cause every lil thing he does is magic Every thing he does just turns me on Even though my life before was tragic Now I know my love for him goes on I resolve to call him up A thousand times a day And ask him if he'll marry me In some old fashioned way But my silent fears have gripped me Long before I reached the phone Long before my tongues tripped me Must i always be alone Cause every little thing he does is magic Every thing he does just turns me on Even though my life before was tragic Now I know my love for him goes on Cause every little thing he does is magic Every thing he does just turns me on Even though my life before was tragic Now I know my love for him goes on Goes on'goes on'
