I Kept Watch Like Doves Lyrics

You said and you swore we were bound in love forever
Did you really think I'd let you go unscathed?
I don't think so

I kept watch like doves, spyin' eyes, they found you
Camped out on branches and I saw
Hands and shirts landing, so quietly I picked some evidence up

I raced back to beat you home, I was sick from it all
Knotted fists, I heard your bootsteps
You were glowing, you brought in the mud like nothing's wrong

Where you been? Don't deny, yeah, I'm asking questions
Come clean, don't blink, I'm warning you her perfume's strong
It's important that you tell the truth to get along

He kept on with his story, I poured Chloroform into his scotch
I held up the belt he thought he'd lost, said, "Look at me
And own up to what you've done"

He caught a blow to the head, a sash way then he bent
I was aiming for his eyes 'cause I could still see them there
Tangled together like trumpet vines

I let you go, there's still time, you could still get out alive
But her turn to rage and I came unhinged at close range
He got it four times

Splayed out at my feet, blood pooled all around him
I kneeled down
I said baby, look what you've made me do, this is forgiveness
The only way that I know how to
