The Black Sorrows - Calling Card lyrics

A lonesome joker I've become Crawling at your gate I remember in my better days I was not the one to wait That leaving kiss is on your lips That secret is all mine And I'm handing down my calling card To the hands of old man time And you just might get lucky You just might want to kiss the ground 'cause I'm giving out my calling card To anyone around I'm hanging up my mourning coat I'm handing down my chains I'm walking off this sinking boat And nothing shall remain I'm stepping out into the sun Looking for my day These simple things now I've received Are bound to light my way Won't you save me For love is a fearless enemy Won't you save me I see these days become tomorrow With only myself left to follow I'll slide the pieces up my sleeve I'll take the guilty down The broken lovers I believe Are better lost than found They're burning letters by the fire The river rolls and turns I hear the whisper on the wire The loser never learns
