Peter Doherty - The Ballad Of Grimaldi lyrics

While there's still a fighting chance Can't you just get up and go And get away from this hollow romance It's slowly binding us both Because you tell me what you want and I'll avoid it Tell it to the sick and to the damned Show me what you love, watch me destroy it For your love just crumbles in my hands But if you stay for a while.. I'll try to think of something kind to say And maybe if we pray for a while St. Jude may hear my pleas And see me on my bended knees Because she knows how I adore you We won't be fighting again tonight Not if she knows I adore you No fighting again tonight.. I laugh and fall just like Grimaldi You wear your make-up like Baby Jane All of those promising lies that you told me Come on and tell me them again I walked these streets all of my life.. The fear and hope ... Because you tell him what you want and he'll avoid it May as well tell it to the sick and to the damned Show him what you love, watch him destroy it
