We've Got The Knife lyrics

You’ve got your pretty face

You’ve got disarming eyes

You’ve got such social grace

I’ve got my pretty spies

I found you lost, misplaced

I loved that lovely guise

I said I’d try my luck and you said,

“Well, you don’t, you don’t have to try”

I forgot that night, what you said that night:

“I had the most exquisite time”

Well, you got that right, but it’s not the whole story

I want it all

I court the loveliest of crimes

Say it as if it were true

We’ve got the knife you left behind

Play it just like you do

I wanna hear you mean it,

When you say I’m not next in line

I court the loveliest of crimes

Save it, 'cause we’ve got the knife

You’ve got your pretty face

You’ve got your stunning glow

You’ve got exquisite taste

I’ve got the marks to show

You said you’d shoot the stars,

But bullets make you blush

Turns out you liked to play

Play with knives,

And I hear that it gives you a rush

Well, we’ve got the knife

Yeah, we’ve got the knife

I’ve got the knife you left behind

Well, we’ve got the knife

Now I want the whole story

I want it all

I court the loveliest of crimes

Say it as if it were true

We’ve got the knife you left behind

Play it just like you do

I wanna hear you mean it,

When you say I’m not next in line

I court the loveliest of crimes

Save it, 'cause we’ve got the knife

I thought you looked familiar

I’d seen your face long before that night

Now I wait, for you were no stranger

No stranger to taking a life

I want it all

I court the loveliest of crimes

Say it as if it were true

We’ve got the knife you left behind

Play it just like you do

I wanna hear you mean it,

When you say I’m not next in line

I court the loveliest of crimes

Save it, 'cause we’ve got the knife
