Lyrics Two Gallants

Two Gallants

Trembling of the Rose

Why must it come to this?

You disown me with a kiss

Another number on your list

Guess, that's me

But oh, girl what have I done?

Another fool blind by the sun

Now which way shall I run

Aimlessly?

But look out nowI can't see straight

Just woke up and it's getting late

And I'm as full of hate

As I used to be

But in the hour of my demise

I'll recall your empty eyes

You know I died

The day you set me free

But what good is livin' for

When there's no knock on the door

No shelter from the world

Against me

But if you comfort me 'til dawn

I'd sing your lonesome song

Pack my things

I'll be gone vaguely

But with your high heels and your mace

You tell me I'm out of place

Rip my eyes out of my face with ease

And if I had one inch of pride

You took that too

When you said goodbye

You know I died

The day you set me free

Well, I dreamt of you last night

And I woke to curse my life

Good god, I'm sick of sight

Can't you see?

But I must remain composed

'Neath the trembling of the rose

But you left me so exposed

Faithlessly

But who knows what is right or wrong?

Paid your debt and carry on

No, I don't belong

That's plain to see

I guess I'll take your stress in stride

The hill is steep, the water's wide

You know I died

The day you set me free
