Scalpel
Liner Notes

Lyrics
That night in the room When you kissed me And whispered goodbye From the door I wanted to stop you But could not I could not rise up From the floor
You were always so wicked My darling Too chic to just Break my heart Silver and sleek Like a scalpel You cut quick And took me apart
Chorus I felt nothing when you struck Such a quick and quiet cut By the time I saw the blood You were out and gone for good
Now I’m nothing without the pain Empty streets and silent rain And the hurt is sinking in Will you cut me once again?
I thought we were laughing Together You were just laughing At me The shiny eyes of your friends With their lies Delighted you Endlessly
Oh how my blood burned Within me When I realized I’d just Played the fool But I will, with grace, Surrender I leave it to you to be cruel
Chorus I felt nothing when you struck Such a quick and quiet cut By the time I saw the blood You were out and gone for good
Now I’m nothing without the pain Empty streets and silent rain And the hurt is sinking in Will you cut me once again?
Lai lalala lai la la lai ...

Such a huge Roy Orbinson feel to this song. so good. Loved it!!!!
Really enjoyed the 3-time rolling melancholic feeling. Good production too. Nice harmonies.
