Anita Lane - The Petrol Wife lyrics

I've got a story too It started with I love you When I walked slow and true And my hips swung To the rhythm of you But I can't turn back To before you said that It happened in the kitchen It happened in the bathroom It happened in the car I guess it's just my bad luck charm Come, little bird, fly away At the first drum roll we undress At the second drum roll we get into bed To ensure order and silence Silence always makes me scream My room was pink When I was a child There were pretty things to look at And the shadows were so soothing And the shadows did cry And crawl and blame Left foot found my heart And the right broke it apart Left right, left right, left right At the first drum roll we undress At the second drum roll we get into bed To ensure order and silence Silence always makes me scream As the damned scream, saying nothing Forgive me lord Soldiers always return to the earth Come, little bird, fly away
