Blood on the Sheets

So now there's blood on the sheets;
it looks like a murder but it's 10 times as sweet.
I held you in my hands,
I looked you in the eyes,
and we danced without missing a beat.

So now there's clothes on the floor;
I've stolen things that I cannot return.
Embarrassed but I will not leave;
I am the most beautiful thief,
and I have found my way into your core.

So now there's blood on the sheets,
shaking and shivering from my head to my feet.
I held you in my hands,
I looked you in the eyes,
and we danced without missing a beat.

So now there's blood on the sheets;
a murder, a murder! we put on repeat.
As they take the bed into the morgue,
lift the covers and you will see
two naked bodies lying underneath.
