same nights, old story
cigarettes on your breath
who's he? I'll say it, on my knees
Win or lose, I hope you never take me for a fool
beat my face in, black and blue
tell me I'm your disease
but I am unaware
of every sudden change
the fringes of your fingertips
are patterned on my face
look at my disgrace
know that nothing will ever be the same again
that's the spirit, and she tells me
she wears it on her sleeves
that's the spirit, or what haunts me
it tells me what to believe
that's the spirit, and it tells me
touch me one more time
my feelings and my drinks are mixed
there's nothing I can do to fix
this situation in which your thoughts are crawling in to mine
but if you can give me one last chance I promise I will never let you down
honey, can I tell you this when no one is around?
because I am unaware
of every sudden change
the fringes of your fingertips
are patterned on my face
look at my disgrace
know that nothing will ever be the same again
that's the spirit, and she tells me
she wears it on her sleeves
that's the spirit, and it haunts me
it tells me what to believe
that's the spirit, and she tells me
touch me one more time
