From the recording Heaven
Lyrics
Spent twenty years sharpening this knife
She’s gonna see that I’m still alive
And when the cold wind creeps into my room
I’ll be there soon
Her little house looks so lonely by the lake
Where she prays the Lord her soul to take
Billy Bly won’t see you anymore
When I’m at your door
Spent twenty years sharpening this knife
She’s gonna see that I’m still alive
And when the cold wind creeps into my room
I’ll be there soon
She whispered to me sweetly and said please
She could always get me on my knees
And when she asked a favor to be done
I was the one
Spent twenty years sharpening this knife
She’s gonna see that I’m still alive
And when the cold wind creeps into my room
I’ll be there, I’ll be there, I’ll be there
Soon
