Lyrics The Maccabees

The Maccabees

One Hand Holding

Oh, love I was torn, I was torn

But I put those thoughts away love, just a thought

Will the Gods look kindly?

Those thoughts are behind me

Oh, why would you be led to suppose?

Oh, why would you be led by your nose?

Why would you kill it, kill it, kill it before it dies?

Why would you kill it, kill it, kill it before it dies?

Those puffy eyes are no surprise

When there's a devil in the doorway

Heaven in the hallway, say you'll still adore me

And I'm far out on an ocean

Trapped in a disaster, I'd say I still adore you

Oh, why would you carry on a name?

Oh, why would you carry on the same?

Why would you kill it, kill it, kill it before it dies?

Why would you kill it, kill it, kill it before it dies?

Those killer eyes don't look the same

The same, the same as they used to do

Not like the eyes, the eyes, the eyes that I make at you

I make at you, I make at you

It was torn up but now it's alright, alright

It was torn up, alright

It was torn up but now it's alright, alright

It was torn up, alright
