Lyrics The Tiger Lillies

The Tiger Lillies

Love a whore

The best fruit is the forbidden

And love is the path to forgiving

That which you cannot attain

Sucks you to it like a drain

The love I feel it is so pure

I tell myself so I endure

I suffer pains which I can’t cure

If only I could love a whore

Sometimes I think that I might cry

I never do and I know why

Because with love I will endure

If only I could love a whore

The neon lights go fizzing by

On lonely nights I wonder why

The love I feel it is so pure

If only I could love a whore
