Dark Hand Over My Heart Songtext / Lyric

Becky loved me and I let her

Wish I could have loved her better

On the day we pulled apart

She primed a time-bomb in my heart

Now there's a shadow hiding

Now there's a horseman riding

Lover of all broken things

Standing waiting in the wings



Sometimes I wonder why I love and let it die

Can't give, can't live just to hold back, hold back



There's a dark hand, there's a dark hand

There's a dark hand over my heart



There's a dark hand, there's a dark hand

There's a dark hand over my heart






You call me fraud and faker

You call me user, taker

You say I throw you scraps

Prove my strength by holding back

But I shine my honour brightly

Swear my allegiance nightly

But through my hands it slips

The same old demons paint their lips



Sometimes I wonder why I love and let it die

I can't give, I can't live just to hold back, hold back



There's a dark hand, there's a dark hand

There's a dark hand over my heart



There's a dark hand, there's a dark hand

There's a dark hand over my heart



There's a dark hand, there's a dark hand

There's a dark hand over my heart



Oh there's a dark hand, there's a dark hand

There's a dark hand over my heart
