Twist The Knife Lyrics - Collider - Sam Roberts

I hear you knocking on the door 

But you ain't never comin' in, no,no 

To this house no more 

'Cause it ain't like 

It ain't like it was before 

You went sailin' on for that distant shore 

Oh, oh, oh 

True, we had love so true 

Oh and we had skies so blue 

We had skies so blue 

So I, I had my hopes up high 

Till all I heard was goodbye 

When I called for you 

I turn the key, you twist the knife 

I can't win, no I can't win 

Now you're knockin' on the door 

But you can't come in 

Oh no 

So you can take it on the chin 

Yeah you take it on your weak chin 

Then you do it all again and again 

Tell me when will it end 

And now you come back 

Oh yeah, you crawled on back 

With your head held high and 

Your book of lies in a burlap sack 

I just don't know, honey, what went wrong 

Love just can't grow when you're gone so long 

I turn the key, you twist the knife 

I can't win, no I can't win 

Now you're knockin' on the door 

But you can't come in 

Oh no 

Oh you just don't know 

Which way the wind is going to blow 

No, you just don't know 

Just when the sky is going to fall 

You've been a soldier 

You've been a privateer 

Now you're looking much older 

Yes you are my dear 

Now your back again 

From the lion's den 

You've got a plagiarist's eye 

You've got a poison pen 

I turn the key, you twist the knife 

I can't win, no I can't win 

Now you're knockin' on the door 

But you can't come in 

Oh no 

Oh you just don't know 

Which way the wind is going to blow 

No, you just don't know 

Just when the sky is going to fall 

Love can bend you, love can break 

Hearts can mend and hearts can ache 

Life will give you what you take 

Oh, life will give you what you take 

Love can bend you, love can break 

Hearts can mend and hearts can ache 

Life will give you what you take 

Oh, life will give you what you take
