[Lyric] Down to the Bone (The Slingers)

[Verse 1]
I thought I knew
What love was all about
But as I fell in
She fell out
Standing on the platform
I tried to wave goodbye
But as the train pulled away
She would not catch my eye

[Pre-Chorus]
And it's always you
In the half-shell with a veil across your face
With your lover on your arm
And your eyes cast into space

[Chorus]
Come to me, baby
I'm so alone
You're all I've ever wanted
And you're all I've ever known
Don't try to roll me back
I am not made of stone
When you left, you left a hole in me
Down to the bone
[Verse 2]
The choice is plain before me
Delusion or despair?
But by the time it matters
I'll be too strung out to care

[Pre-Chorus]
And it's always you
Like the Virgin Mary, child tugging at your sleeve
Tell me lies
Only this time, honey, make me believe

[Chorus]
Come to me, baby
Reap what you have sown
You're the long-distance dial
Screaming down my telephone
Look at you, baby
All your lovers are out on loan
When you left, you left a hole in me
Down to the bone
Yeah, when you left, you left a hole in me
Down to the bone

[Bridge]
Faith turned its back on me
There lies the mystery
Why love must come and go
I guess I'll never know
[Chorus]
Come to me, baby
I'm so alone
When you left, you left a hole in me
Down to the bone
Yeah, when you left, you left a hole in me
Down to the bone

[Outro]
Come to me
I'm so alone
Down to the bone
Come to me
