Unfinished Business - Ronnie Spector

just give me a second darling, to clear my head
just put down those scissors baby, on this single bed
the sand in the hourglass is running low
i came through thunder, the cold wind
the rain and the snow
to find you awake by your windowsill
a sight for sore eyes and a view to kill
i broke down in horror at you standing there
the glow from the moon
shone through cracks in your hair.
i shouted with passion,
"i love you so much"
but feeling my skin, it was cold to the touch.
you whispered "where are you?"
i questioned your doubt
but soon realised, you were talking to god now
you've got blood on your hands
and i know it's mine
i just need more time
so get off your low and let's dance like we used to
but there's a light in the distance
waiting for me, i will wait for you
so get off your low and let's kiss like we used to
i looked in the mirror
but something was wrong.
i saw you behind but my reflection was gone.
there was smoke in the fireplace
as white as the snow.
a voice beckoned gently
'now it's time to go'
a requiem played as you begged for forgiveness
"don't touch me!" i screamed
"i've got unfinished business"
you've got blood on your hands
and i know it's mine
i just need more time
so get off your low and let's dance like we used to
but there's a light in the distance
waiting for me, i will wait for you
so get off your low, and let's kiss like we used to
you've got blood on your hands
and i know it's mine
i just need more time
so get off your low and let's dance like we used to
but there's a light in the distance
waiting for me, i will wait for you
so get off your low, and let's kiss like we used to
