Lyrics The Dear Hunter

The Dear Hunter

He Said He Had A Story

There was a silver circle sign

And she was standing at the door

We pressed our way right through the crowd

Our pace was quickened to her floor

There was a single fading light

And there was silk all on the wall

She had a lot of love to give

I was prepared to take it all

[But what did she do next?]

She had disrobed

And she was waiting on the floor

She asked me what it was I want

I thought that I wanted it all

[What did you say?]

I said "stand up and move your body to the bed"

She quickly stood and turned

And here's exactly what she said

"Please be soft and sweet to me,

This life has not been good you see.

It's hard with such a history

Buried in misery."

[And what did you do next?]

I broke a smile reminding that I paid her well

(Her lips were turned?)

And then I felt her hands

Unbuckling my belt

[So was it good?]

Oh, it felt like heaven

But I'm sure she was in hell

I made it clear I'd get my moneys worth

Out of the good she sells

Break and bind yourself to me

Deliver what you sold

You see that I will only take from you

And use it up

I'll use you up

What was your name?

Break and bind yourself to me

Deliver what you sold

You see that I will only take from you

To use it up

I'll use you up

What was your name?
