The Affordable Floors - The Red Room Lyrics


The Affordable Floors Lyrics

The Red Room Lyrics
From the Album: Drumming on the Walls (1989)

Stephen hands her a comb and brush. She preens her hair.
Glancing sideways, she believes she's suspended in mid air.

Do you love me? Yes, I love you like I'll never love again.
Will you leave me? Yes, I'll leave you to be loved by other men.

Please stand up. Please be good enough to turn around.
Keep your lips open, knees apart, eyes fixed on the ground.

Do you love me? Yes, I love you like the marks upon your skin.
Will you leave me? Yes, I'll leave you in the hands of other men.

She never wants to say goodbye.
She tries, but she never wants to say goodbye.

And all at once it all starts spinning round her head.
Somehow, something seemed to be so clear.
She holds her breath now just because she thinks she can.
As if on this point she might make a stand.

She never wants to say goodbye.
She tries but she never wants to say goodbye.
To all the strange things she's begun to understand.
To all the red rooms and the irons on her hands.
She never wants to say goodbye.
She tries but she never wants to say goodbye.
To all the red rooms and the irons on her hands.
To all the strange things she's begun to understand.
She never wants to say goodbye.
