Hot skin in the night
And the hour when the animals are born
Crimes of passion are committed
Take me to the morning light
Take me to your leader
It took a girl like me
To bring you to your knees
It took a girl like me
You were my heart
You are my only heart
But this cold air is killing me
And as we make love
The silence, the silence
Trying to find a thread of a failed romance
It took a girl like me
To bring you to your knees
You take a girl like me
I strained my face towards the sky
You put your hand over my mouth
Oh take me, take me to the frozen north
Skating, falling, falling down, down, down
Into icy water
I'll be what you want me to be
To bring you to your knees
Your lover, your daughter
We'll move in slow motion
Falling down, down, down
Into icy water
You took a girl like me
I might never leave this room again
Shut myself inside the old photographs
Faded light of a young girl
Patterns, shadows on the walls
Painted ladies
They look a lot like me
It took a girl like me
To bring you to your knees
You took a girl like me
