Crown Of Thorns Lyrics - Singles - Janet Devlin

The silence comes back round again 

An emptiness where once were flames 

When I fell upon your shoulders like the rain 

You held me down to drown beneath the waves 

It's over, almost over 

This kind of passion can only end in pain 

Like a crown of thorns 

I can't wear this love around my heart 

Though we've tried and failed a thousand times to lift the dark 

I wear the memories you leave like scars 

I don't know if I can keep on breathing 

If I'm bleeding, bleeding from the start 

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah-oh [x2] 

I feel that every time I breathe 

The oxygen is suffocating me 

It's not a sacrifice we can make 

To be the king and queen of heartache 

It's over, almost over 

Like a crown of thorns 

I can't wear this love around my heart 

Though we've tried and failed a thousand times to lift the dark 

I wear the memories you leave like scars 

I don't know if I can keep on breathing 

If I'm bleeding, bleeding from the start 

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah-oh [x2] 

Parting is a sweet sorrow 

But the marks only fade with time 

I believe that there is life on the other side 

It's over, almost over 

Like a crown of thorns 

I can't wear this love around my heart 

Though we've tried and failed a thousand times to lift the dark 

I wear the memories you leave like scars 

I don't know if I can keep on breathing 

If I'm bleeding, bleeding from the - If I'm bleeding, bleeding from the start 

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah-oh [x4] 

The silence comes back round again...
