lyrics

This is our love
Don't steal it
You keep twistin the knife, I can't feel it

This is a shotgun wedding
You're the hole in my head
I would ask you forgiveness baby
But you left me chained to the hotel bed
And then the dog days, they don't howl in the night
Jump out your window it'll be alright, alright

She said
One kiss won't hurt you baby
One hit won't make you save me
One kiss won't hurt you baby
One hit won't make you say

This is our love
Don't steal it
You keep twistin the knife, I can't feel it

This is a shotgun wedding ( come shootin me up)
You're the hole in my head ( you come shooting me up )
I would beg you forgiveness darlin
But I'm still crawlin round the room up to the walls of your legs
And then the dog days they don't howl in the night
Jump out your window you will be alright
Alright

She said
One kiss won't hurt you baby
One hit won't make you save me
One kiss won't hurt you baby
One hit won't make you say

This is our love, this is our love

Whatever happened to us not wanting to be just like everyone else
Was it you that put that heavy heart right back into my chest
Singing heartache is like a caged bird, singing the same old songs we've heard
Time and time and time again
Whatever happens, I'll let you in again

This is our love, this is our love

You keep twistin the knife, I can't feel it
