paul kelly - the body keeps the score lyrics
[verse 1]
i thought that i had
said goodbye for good
to everything i’d left behind
in that old dark wood
now i’m back in the shade
there’s a stranger at my door
with a bill i haven’t paid
the body keeps the score
[verse 2]
i thought that i was clean away
but the body always keeps the score
thought i’d stepped into a brighter day
but the body always keeps the score
now i can hear that whispering blade
of the knife in the night time kitchen drawer
and i’m standing here so afraid
the body keeps the score
[chorus]
oh, my love, i’m sorry, you’ve done nothing wrong
how could you tell, i hid it so well, even from myself
you know i’m a ticking time bomb
a tick+tick+tick+tick+tick+tick ticking time bomb
[verse 3]
i said to satan
“now, get thee behind me”
but satan likes to take his time
satan he don’t pay no mind to me
he changes shape into an imp
a little imp, and burrows down deep inside
then up he jumps with blazing eyes and cries
“surprise, your body’s mine, i know the score”
[chorus]
a tick+tick+tick+tick+tick+tick ticking time bomb
a tick+tick+tick+tick+tick+tick ticking time bomb
[outro]
the body always keeps the score
the knife lays sleeping in the drawer
the imp lies curled up in the core
the body keeps the score
