The Pawnbroker Lyrics
As winter bleached the colour from the sun you left the in-laws
And went to buy the things that I'd put in the pawnshop window
And you took them home, locked them away
My heart and soul, like china in display
I realised my mistake and hurried to the pawnshop window
But where my things had been there was nothing but a shadow
And I became yours as you held the key
My heart and soul no longer belong to me
So now I wash the blood out of the uniforms you wear
And stitch and mend your life up wherever there's a tear
I repay the debt, so one day you'll owe me
And on a night you'll regret, you will hand over the key
And went to buy the things that I'd put in the pawnshop window
And you took them home, locked them away
My heart and soul, like china in display
But where my things had been there was nothing but a shadow
And I became yours as you held the key
My heart and soul no longer belong to me
And stitch and mend your life up wherever there's a tear
I repay the debt, so one day you'll owe me
And on a night you'll regret, you will hand over the key
