You Bring Out the Best In Me - Marlena Shaw

It's Halloween And I'm your ghost I promise to haunt you the most When love was dead Your heart went black (your heart went black) And I promise you I'm coming back When you're all alone (when you're all alone) Be prepared 'Cause you might hear me When you sleep I will be Inside your dreams Inside your screams Everything was perfect Nothing felt so perfect Even when you hurt me Every time I bleed Why are you always thirsting? Why do you always curse me? (Why?) You put a knife in me All for nothing Carve me like a pumpkin Always for nothing When you sleep I will be Inside your dreams Inside your screams You I will possess you When you sleep I will be Inside your dreams Inside your screams You, yeah I will possess you C'mon Inside your screams You want me to think that you're wild? No, I just wanna show you something about marriage

Goodbye, my friend, goodbye, my love, you're in my heart It was preordained that we should part And be reunited by and by, united by and by Goodbye, no handshake to endure, now there's nothing It was written in blood, it was written in blood It was written in blood, oh, God, written in blood It was written in blood, it was written in blood Oh, my God, it was written in blood Let's have no sadness, furrowed brow There's nothing new in dying now Let's have no sadness, furrowed brow There's nothing new in dying now Though living is no newer, though living is no newer And it was written in blood It was written in blood, it was written in blood It was written in blood, oh, God, written in blood It was written in blood, it was written in blood Oh, my God, it was written in blood on a suicide note Like roses, we blossom then die Like roses, we blossom then die Like roses, we blossom then die We fall apart (Die) We fall apart, fall apart (Die) Like roses, we blossom then die Like roses, we blossom then die We fall apart We fall apart Like roses, we fall apart, fall apart Though living is no newer, though living is no newer It was written in blood, on a fucking suicide note The day before he died It was written in blood, it was written in blood It was written in blood, my God, written in blood It was written in blood, it was written in blood Oh, my God, it was written in blood Like roses, we blossom then die Like roses, we blossom then die We fall apart (Fall apart) We fall apart (Fall apart) Fall apart We fall Like roses Like roses Roses (Roses) Roses (Like roses) Like roses Like roses (Like roses)
