Velvet Underground - The Story Of My Life lyrics

She blew me her death-kiss

And the mouth-marks

Bled down my eye,

Like her dying

On my windshield.

I can already feel

Her worms

Eating my spine.

So how can it be this lonely?

Is this all we get

For our lives?

Is love only sweeter when

One of dies?

Then I knew that our love was

Just a car crash away.

I knew that our love was just a car crash away.

I knew that our love was

Just a car crash away.

I knew that our love was

Just a car crash away.

Love is a fire.

Burns down all that it sees.

Burns down everything.

Everything you think

Will burn

Everything you say.

Love is a fire.

Burns down all that it sees.

Burns down everything.

Everything you think

Will burn

Everything you say.

I knew that our love was

Just a car crash away.

Knew that our love was

Just a car crash away.

Just a car crash away.

[backup vocals]

I knew that our love was

Just a

Car

Crash

Away.

I knew that our love was

Just a

Car

Crash

Away.

[repeat to end of solo]

Love is a fire.

Burns down all that it sees.

Burns down everything.

Everything you think

Will burn

Everything you say.

Love is a fire.

Burns down all that it sees.

Burns down everything.

Everything you think

Will burn

Everything you say.
