Mandalay This Life Lyrics

You couldn't even bring yourself to stay, oh no

You had to go, spoil it all
I know you had to go
Now I find these endlessly
Colorblind days to fill
You never will

(Take this life)
Take this life
Take it all
In your hands

You were mine
I could smile
You understand, fine

Again, I dream
You come to me
(Come back to me)
And comfort me

But now I dream
Where did this time go?
Where did this time go?
Did your love go

I know you have to go
Spoil it all
And now I know
You never will

(Take this life)
Take this life
Take it all In your hands

You were mine
I could smile
You understand, fine

(Take this life)
Take this life
Take it all
In your hands

You were mine
I could smile
Again

Just what you said was cold advice
I discovered sticks go with knives
I discovered I could've die in your chains
Still I feel, so won't you stay
Oh, babe

(Take this life)
Take this life
Take it all
In your hands

You were mine
I could smile
You understand, fine

(Take this life)
Take this life
Take it all
In your hands

You were mine
I could smile
Again
