lyrics

You knew the risk when we started this
You knew how it might turn out
You knew that I had a history
You knew sometimes things go south

So I'm sorry if I get you dirty baby
I'm sorry if you get a disease
But I'm in the business of bleeding darling
And sometimes my heart needs a squeeze

The snow's falling down on the mountainside
This lodge is become our tomb
Good luck finding us in the spring again
When the flowers bloom

So before you throw that rock through my window baby
Cause I refuse to change your name
Remember I'm in the business of bleeding darling
Without you it just wouldn't be the same

I know that life's only temporary
I know that it won't last
But still it feels so important baby
To outrun the past

So I understand if you don't want me anymore
Now that I have lost my youthful allure
But loss is the business of bleeding darling
And sometimes it's the only cure
