Deep Purple - The Cut Runs Deep Lyrics

Deep Purple Lyrics

"The Cut Runs Deep"

Got your finger on the trigger
Your cold eyes taking aim
You took a shot at my heart
Let the bullets fly
Tell me, has one of them got my name?

What about the heartache?
What about the emptiness inside?
It doesn't just fade away
Turning the knife
How much can I bleed?
The cut runs deep

Wow, oh
The cut runs deep!
Oh yeah
The cut runs deep!

I can't find no salvation
Can't find no healing touch
Reaching out for mercy
A stranger in your eyes
I want you too much

What about the heartache?
What about the emptiness inside?
It doesn't just fade away
Turning the knife
How much can I bleed?
The cut runs deep

Ooh
The cut runs deep!
Yeah, yeah
The cut runs deep!

No!
The cut runs deep!
Ooh, the c-c-cut
The cut runs deep!
The cut runs deep!
'Cause I want you too much

What about the heartache?
What about the emptiness inside?
(The cut runs deep!)
Turning the knife
The cut runs deep

Whoa
What about the heartache?
What about the emptiness inside?
Ooh, it doesn't fade away
(The cut runs deep!)
Turning the knife
The cut runs deep
