Richmond Fontaine - Collapse lyrics

I will not hit you Or punish you although you ask me to I will not But I now think about it at times There's an unsettling here and I don't Know what to do to keep it at bay I don't know right from wrong anymore But I wanted to keep you with me in Every way, but I can't But still I recall with faintness your hair And the sacrilegious words that would fall In the deadest of air It was not from violence Nor abandonment It was just collapse There was a whiskey bottle in her purse That we would take to the movies or into shows And in the back, in the darkness, we would kiss And that's what I'll remember of you
