"Oxford Blood" lyrics

"Oxford Blood"

You, you feel like Oxford blood
A sedative too much
When the effects of you wear off
I always come for more

I see the wisdom in your years
A melting pot of fear and loathing in suburbia
Take away the sting so we can live within
Our own parameters

We could run away avoid a collision
Leave us well alone to make our decision
I am here with you beside me

We need a lotta love to combat the evil
Lying in a bathtub hoping for a miracle
Wash the day away and start again

I have furnished all my walls
With money; filled the holes
You, you offer me much more
A love that is insured

I see your sympathetic eyes
The trembling of your sigh
There's only so much we can take
Hand in hand we'll go
And all the while we'll know
A happy ever after

We could run away avoid a collision
Leave us well alone to make our decision
I am here with you beside me

We need a lotta love to combat the evil
Lying in a bathtub hoping for a miracle
Wash the day away and start again

Last night I dreamt that we were falling apart
So I insisted we begin at the start
To turn us back into a work of art

Last night I dreamt that we were falling apart
So I insisted we begin at the start
To turn us back into a work of art

We could run away avoid a collision
Leave us well alone to make our decision
(I am here with you beside me)
To turn us back into a work of art

We need a lotta love to combat the evil
Lying in a bathtub hoping for a miracle
(Wash the day away and start again)
To turn us back into a work of art

We could run away avoid a collision
Leave us well alone to make our decision
I am here with you beside me
We need a lotta love to combat the evil
Lying in a bathtub hoping for a miracle
Wash the day away and start again
