Bonnie Raitt - Spit Of Love lyrics

Your rating:

I hear him closin in
 That green-eyed jackal's got the scent
 Knows I'll let him in
 He slinks in by me at the fire
 More bitter than the cold
 And it's a rage as old as Hades
 That'll sputter on these coals
 I'm callin on the Furies, to let the toast begin
 I'm roasting on the spit of love again
 I never have believed you
 But I stick around for more
 Somethin bout that hollow in your eyes
 There's a darkness at the core
 Well, it's got me slowly turnin
 I'm basting on the bone
 I'm skewered like some drunken fool
 In juices all my own
 Callin the Furies' carrion choir
 Singin me back upon the pyre
 I'm roasting on that spit of love again
 You can call it what you want
 But it's lyin just the same
 There's no mercy in these ashes, baby
 When your love's a cryin shame
 And they're howlin in moonlight, baby
 They're here to call my bluff
 they're wonderin if there'll ever come a day
 When I'll have finally had enough
 I'm callin on the Furies, to let the toast begin
 I'm roasting on that spit of love again
