Blood Red Laughter - Magnum

Was there a single word I said to betray?

The very thoughts inside my head blown away

I know we never drew the line to be crossed

And really didn’t think too much would be lost

It knocked me all out of shape

I don’t know what I fell into

It’s got me living on faith

And after all that I’ve been through

Blood red laughter

Across your face

If I recall

Monday morning

You run and hide

Can’t face it all

Moonlight’s fading

I watched you sleep

All through the night

And I wonder

What did you dream

Wrapped up so tight?

There was a priest all dressed in black on the day

Although his mind was somewhere else far away

It’s like a stranger took his place for a while

And then returned it faithfully with a smile

It seems a long time ago

And we’re still walking the same street

Yeah, it’s beginning to show

Just like the cracks in the concrete

Blood red laughter

Across your face

If I recall

Monday morning

You run and hide

Can’t face it all

Moonlight’s fading

I watched you sleep

All through the night

And I wonder

What did you dream

Wrapped up so tight?

But now where I stand

And all that I see

A picture of you

The shadow of me From the touch of your hand

The turn of the key

Yeah, I’ll live for you

If you’ll live for me Blood red laughter

Across your face

If I recall

Monday morning

You run and hide

Can’t face it all

Moonlight’s fading

I watched you sleep

All through the night

And I wonder
