Gun Lyrics - Emiliana Torrini

Every day I see you looking in 

I'll be the smoothest thing to touch your skin 

You're longing to be loved but you're alone 

And your longing makes you shiver to the bone 

And no, your mama told you nothing of importance 

No, your daddy taught you nothing could learn 

You had your sister's weighing on your pockets 

And the priest, he tries so hard to get you turned 

Maybe you've been living lonely 

While your woman has a fellow on the side 

Your kids keep telling jokes that ain't that funny 

And you've failed in everything that comes to mind 

Now you see I'm only here to let you know 

That I love you and I'll never let you go 

So take me in the hand and walk on by 

For the life this has to offer twists inside 

Now your woman has a fellow in your bed 

You have to go, you have to move right in 

And the ring on your finger would leave another scar 

But the joke's on her, she hasn't seen it all 

So you shuffled up close and you shot him in the face 

And your woman looked on and your children, they embraced 

And the candle's still burning and the fire's roaring fire 

You moved right in, yeah, you moved right in 

Stuck, you're shaking, sweating, whining and regretting 

You're making a scene but it's gonna get you caught 

Meet me in the barrel and tell me that you love me 

Yes, this is a kiss that I swear will blow your mind
