Peter Doherty - Dead for Love lyrics

[Verse 1] Your only rule: Stay alive Just keep breathing, you'll be fine And now she's pulling up out side The car lights crawling across the curtain So put the gun back on the wall Take the suitcase from the wardrobe And there's a dead man on the floor He's not going anywhere And you're moving to the door [Chorus] And everything he ever did He only ever did for love Everything he ever said Was only ever said for love And now, now he lies dead He's dead for love His mind's at ease He sleeps in peace [Verse 2] Your reflection in her eyes You just don't recognise And soon you'll realize This guy's not going anywhere And now he's done this, he wants more Race with the shadows to the door A guy like this needs to be shun No one was there when the devil rode out before [Chorus] And everything he ever did He only ever did for love Everything he ever said He only ever said for love And now, now he lies dead He's dead for love His mind's at ease He sleeps in peace [Bridge] And in the shadows your will walk tall And there you'll stay until you fall And when the final hour arrives It's only lovers left alive Wretched souls and gangsters' molls Beyond the valley of the dolls Your story they will never tell Because their lips are sealed [Chorus] And everything you ever did You only ever did for love And everything you ever said You only ever said for love And now, now he lies dead He's dead for love Your mind's at ease You sleep in peace And everything you ever did You only ever did for love And everything you ever said You only ever said for love And now, now he lies dead He's dead for love Your mind's at ease You sleep in peace [Outro] After a sleepless night the body weakens It grows dear, not ones own, it's nobody's Sluggish, the veins still retain the ache of arrows One smiles to all with a seraph's ease Lips glow softly, the shadow's were golden Under sunken eyes Night has set ablaze The most radiant countenance And dark nights renders But one part of us dark - the eyes
