Del Amitri - Wash Her Away Lyrics
Eyes like a slash across her faceLips I'd kill a man to tasteWhatever this stuff is, I'm buyingWhatever it does, I'll do it 'til I'm dyingI can't wash her awayIt's getting under my skinI can't wash her awayI can feel her closing inHands like a carnival of queensHair like a heart attack of dreamsA voice so soft you could cut it with a kissScreams so small you could hold them in your fistLittle white fingertips running up your backLittle needling scores where her nails leave a trackI can't wash her awayShe's living in my skinI can't seem to wash her awayI can feel her closing inEyes like a slash across her faceLips so damn sweet you'd cut your tonuge out for a tasteWhatever this stuff is, I'm buyingIf she's nothing but a coffin least she's good enough to die inShe's a ballroom full of dancing chairsShe's a child in disguise hiding bullets in her hairA voice so soft you could cut it with a kissScreams so small you could hold them in your fistEvery one night stand is a six week stretchCraving her arms twisted up around your neckSkin so white, a heart so pureIf you opeden up her veins you'd see the light run through her
