Whatever Possessed You - Care

Goodbye my love

Heaven it has been long

Now young men’s arms

Don’t seem quite so strong

November cold frost bites

Deep as the snow flowers form

This bed is colder than chloroform

Never darken my door

Whatever possessed you all?

Somewhere there’s an end to this

Woe betide me

I wouldn’t dream of it

Beware my love

This tongue is a dying flame

My lies they fall like an acid rain

And maybe the sheet wears thin

As silently love corrodes

Beloved angel, you’re skin and bones

Never darken my door

Whatever possessed you all?

Somewhere there’s an end to this

Woe betide me

I wouldn’t dream of it

November cold frost bites

Deep as the snow flowers form

This bed is colder than chloroform

Never darken my door

Whatever possessed you all?

Somewhere there’s an end to this

Woe betide me

I wouldn’t dream of it
