Bob Geldof - Crucfified Me Lyrics

First time that I saw you

You were standing in the hall

You said you knew everything

But I knew you knew f*ck all

There were tremors in your cheekbones

There was longing in your eyes

But I thought I smelt a nameless fear

Buried in your thighs

You crucified me



Do you see

That you crucify me



I crouched down in the hallway

You huddled on the step

There were shadows in the alcove

We were way out of our depth

There was thunder in the hallway

There was lightning at the gate

Electric storms flashed through the walls

In fixed and fluid states

And crucified me



Do you see

That you crucify me



Now and then I call your name

And now and then it's clear

Baby you can call in vain

Even though you're near

You were cloaked in your depression

Like a widow in her veils

How could we begin to think

That we could ever fail

You crucified me



Do you see

That you crucify me



First time that I saw you

You were standing 'gainst the wall

You swore I knew everything

But you knew I knew f*ck all.
