Things You Loved Me For Lyrics - Marc Almond

I was dragging your face around the floor 

Somebody's boot heel in your mouth 

Scars of cigarettes buds on your tongue 

These are the things you loved me for 

Found a young boy down by the dockside 

Lying half-in 

Half-out of the water 

Had a leather facing nailed to his head 

Left his little soul away 

Back in that bed 

Jesus loves all little children (x2)

I broke a large bottle on the edge of your cranium 

You stared there 

Smiling at eyes of oblivion 

I sent you down to spending your damn deliria 

When you began screaming 

I spat in your mouth 

I kissed you so tenderly 

Thinking about 

Yes, these are the things you loved me for 

These are the things you loved me for 

Photos 

But God will never see you in the bowels of the building 

For the ever righteous angel will know what your feeling 

He'll find you 

Seek you nevertheless 

Running petroleum all over your legs 

The hymn that he sing won't be forgiveness 

The hymn that he sing won't be of love 

Angels are immune to love and desire 

You reach down slowly to the gut of the fire 

The smell of the sin (x3) 

The smell of the glory 

These are the things you loved me for (x5)
