Blood Embrace Lyrics & Tabs by Bonnie "Prince" Billy
Blood Embrace
guitar chords lyrics
Oh God, would I give her up to him
If she told me he was better
And that I didn't have the chance?
That he (did?) to impress her?
Does she test me? Does she know
That I would sooner turn and go
Than fight another, if that is what she have me do?
/ INSTRUMENTAL â" electric guitar /
And would she stop and hold me near
If she could see the future here?
Would hold me if she held me to her too?
I would not fight with hands or words
Another man â" no, that's absurd
Or would I end what victory betray me
/ INSTRUMENTAL â" electric guitar /
Another man â" no, that's absurd
Or would I end what victory betray me
/ INSTRUMENTAL â" electric guitar /
Or is that what she's waiting on?
A-pounding down one standing man
To kiss her in a blood embrace of victory
To kiss her in a blood embrace of victory
To kiss her in a blood embrace of victory
(To kiss her in a blood embrace of victory
To kiss her in a blood embrace of victory)
(Oh/Or) would I give her up at all
Because I know it could not be better
To live without what she provides
When we're alone and I undress her
Does she test me? Does she know
That I would never turn and go
But fight another, if that's what she have me do?
SPOKEN (film dialogue):
(Woman) Charlie... I've, uh... I've been with another man.
Aren't you gonna say anything? You're just gonna sit there?
Oh Charlie, I didn't know when you were coming back
(or if you ever would.
I tell you, the men around here don't respect anything;
(if I told you all the guys that called me up...
And then Cliff... He didn't make a pass at me.
I mean he didn't even... do it at all, Charlie.
(I knew what he wanted, but...
he never did anything about it.
And then it just seemed like the two of us just had to.
(Charlie) I don't think I'm up for any more of this.
Why don't you go to bed?
I'll work this all out. (Woman) What are you gonna do?
(Charlie) I'm just gonna sit here.
(Oh/Or) is that what she's waiting on?
A-pounding down one standing man
To kiss her in a blood embrace of victory
To kiss her in a blood embrace of victory
To kiss her in a blood embrace of victory
(To kiss her in a blood embrace of victory)
