"Tainted Blood" lyrics
"Tainted Blood"
We danced among the mortals blind to their despair
As the sweet scent of certainty fills the midnight air
I offer first taste to my love as is our way
Tainted blood, she cries and dies, my whole world fades away
No one to wipe my bloody tears
The life we had for 200 years
Put a stake through my heart, throw me out in the light
Do whatever it takes to end this endless night
Without her there's nothing for me
Make the sign of the cross, wrap me in silver chains
Do whatever it takes to end my pain
Without her eternity is misery
Throughout the many years our lives were oh so sweet
But this tainted blood has taken everything from me
No place for me within this world, the dance is done
No reason to remain, you were the only one
No one to wipe my bloody tears
The life we had for 200 years
Put a stake through my heart, throw me out in the light
Do whatever it takes to end this endless night
Without her there's nothing for me
Make the sign of the cross, wrap me in silver chains
Do whatever it takes to end my pain
Without her eternity is misery
No one to wipe my bloody tears
The life we had for 200 years
Put a stake through my heart, throw me out in the light
Do whatever it takes to end this endless night
Without her there's nothing for me
Make the sign of the cross, wrap me in silver chains
Do whatever it takes to end my pain
Without her eternity is misery
Put a stake through my heart, throw me out in the light
There's nothing, nothing for me
Make the sign of the cross, wrap me in silver chains
Put a stake through my heart, throw me out in the light
Make the sign of the cross, wrap me in silver chains
Put a stake through my heart, throw me out in the light

Hall & Oates - "Maneater" She'll only come out at night

Faces - "Stay With Me" In the mornin' don't say you love me,
'Cause I'll only kick you out of the door

Boston - "Foreplay / Long Time" It's been such a long time
I think I should be goin', yeah
And time doesn't wait for me

I've gotta be...
