Richard Edwards - Avalanche lyrics

She said, “love is like an avalanche At least I think it should be” And a woman made of foreign parts Was making love to me The poetry and shaking limbs You stood naked on a stage And swore that hope would save your soul Then gave your soul away to them And then My head was like a hurricane That blew when we were sad And we walked along the freezing block And loved the life we had Whispering our childhood And the day that we would die And how every breath that leaves our lungs Was kissing us goodbye And I watched you drown In your cold hometown And I burned my tongue And I talk too much [Do do do do do do do Do do do do do do do Do do do do do do Do do do do do] If there's 50 ways to leave your love There must be 50 more So forget about someone you hate Once you've shown her to the door And I watch you choke On the things you need the most And I burn my tongue But I talk too much
