Broken nose is how it goes
A crooked smile you can see for miles
I am a foolish man
Cause I've seen the world down on its knees
For a girl like you
For a girl like you
Shadows move to a broken groove
Draped in red on a gilded bed
Cigarrettes smokey silhouettes
Cause I never thought my bones would say please
For a girl like you
Tell me is, is this love, or is it war?
Tell me is, is this love, or is it war?
It's a lovely war
It's a lovely war
It's a lovely war
That southern draw leaves me in awe
You drive made but girl you're bad
You piss me off but that gets me off
Cause I seem to bite my lip before my tongue
But when I see you dancing real slow, slow
It's a lovely war
*Dance slowly*
