Old Sasha was there already With his bag of tricks You're a sweet small shivering body With nothing left And I begged him to steal just one more life From the nine God gave you He said the miracles were through The cabin shook and listed When you screamed I found some whiskey in the kitchen And poured it in your tea I tried to calm you I kissed your neck and I cooled your forehead And the telephone went dead Oh my God and oh my Dear The shades are drawn Well I guess our time is here We were never as lucky as we'd like Oh my God and oh my Love The doctor's gone, well I guess our time is up Break the fever and cheat death one more time The trees were as still as iceberges And green with Spring My knuckles popped and chattered Like wind-up teeth With my nerves as tight as tension wires And searchlights in the mist I bit my lip, I bit yours in it Oh my God and oh my Dear The shades are drawn Well I guess our time is here We were never as lucky as we'd like Oh my God and oh my Love The cop's outside, well I guess our time is up Break the fever and cheat death one more time
