Lyrics
ANOTHER TWIST OF THE KNIFE
Dick Wagner/John Wetton
When the night rolls in, black as sin
I don't need reminder what a mess I'm in.
Well I hate to lose, but I know I can't win,
With you.
And now the laugh's on me,
But enough is enough
My cover's blown over and I ain't that tough
It's the same old joke, and it's getting real old
Your alibis, baby, are leaving me cold
You and me our worlds collide
All that's left is pain and pride.
Every day you ain't in my life,
What I feel inside is,
Another twist of the knife.
I'm living in pain,
Another twist of the knife.
Here it comes again.
Another twist of the knife.
Well my life with you is a one way street
Through a town made of ice where there ain't no heat
It's a crying shame, but I get no love from you.
Well the highway's closed, and the gates are shut
Your heart is a place that I just can't touch.
Baby one last thing as you walk away,
Just turn out the lights on memory lane.
You and me our worlds collide
All that's left is pain and pride
Every day you ain't in my life
What I feel inside is,
Another twist of the knife.
I'm living in pain,
Another twist of the knife.
Here it comes again.
Another twist of the knife.
Go on, cut me till I bleed
Show me just what you feel for me
I've got no more to lose
Baby do what you gotta do
You and me our worlds collide
All that's left is pain and pride
Every day you ain't in my life
What I feel inside is,
Another twist of the knife.
I'm livin' in pain, another twist of the knife.
Here it comes again
Another twist of the knife.
