She wore out the feeling
With a tender killing
She paid for the blackout
I saw it rolling in
Was I, was I,
Watching over you
Or just watching you fall apart
Did I, did I
Lend a hand to hold you down
Or just a hand to hold
Did I, did I,
Pull the wool over your eyes
Or keep you from the cold
She came with a warning
She left with the morning
An eye on the doorway
A scar in the early light
Was I, was I,
Hanging on a word
Or was I just a messenger
Did I, did I
Lend a hand to hold you down
Or just a hand to hold
Did I, did I,
Pull the wool over your eyes
Or keep you from the cold
In every look upon your face
There was an element of grace
Did I read between the lines or erase
Did I, did I
Lend a hand to hold you down
Or just a hand to hold
Did I, did I,
Pull the wool over your eyes
Or keep you from the cold
