Stabbed In The Heart

Jim White

Upon awakening I find myself

Lying in some woods,

And for the longest time I've sat here,

Just trying to remember why

I feel like I am floating,

Why blood is running down my shirt

Then my memory returns to me

As the pain comes flooding;

Into my heart,

My baby she stabbed me in my heart.

Left me here to die,

My baby she stabbed me in my heart

And I know why...



I hear the sound of distant footsteps,

And I know that she is running

From that past which will pursue her

Until the day that she dies.

'Cause I know about her family,

And their crimes upon her body...

So I guess it wasn't me at all

That she was trying to kill...

When she drove that knife

Into my heart

My baby she stabbed me in my heart

Left me here to die

My baby she stabbed me in my heart

Really came as no surprise.



Over the hill there is a highway,

Now I hear a truck is stopping...

She's flagged somebody down

And asked 'em for a ride.

And I would try to follow her,

But I don't seem to be able

To lift this heavy body anymore,

As the light fails,

And the darkness falls

Into my heart

My baby she stabbed me in my heart

Left me here to die

My baby she stabbed me in my heart

So now I'll just, I'll just close my eyes

Close my eyes as the darkness falls

Into my heart

My baby she stabbed me in my heart

Into my heart

I'm falling, I'm falling, I'm falling...
