Blood Embrace

Lyrics

Oh God, would I give her up to him
 if she told me he was better
 and that I didn't have the chance
 that he did to impress her?
 Does she test me, does she know
 that I would sooner turn and go
 and find another
 if that is what she'd have me do?
 Would she stop and hold me near
 if she could see the future here
 would hold me if she held me
 to her too?
 Would not fight with hands or words
 Another man, no, that's absurd
 Or would I, and would victory
 betray me?
 Or is that what she's waiting on
 a pounding down one standing man?
 To kiss her in a blood embrace
 Victory
 To kiss her in a blood embrace
 A victory
 To kiss her in a blood embrace
 Victory (victory)
 To kiss her in a blood embrace
 Victory
 To kiss her in a blood embrace
 Victory
 Oh would I give her up at all
 because I know it could not be better
 to live without what she provides
 When we're alone and I undress her
 Does she test me, does she know
 that I would never turn and go
 but find another
 if that's what she'd have me do?
 [Woman speaking softly:]
 Charlie.
 I've, uh, I've been with another man.
 Aren't you gonna say anything?
 Just gonna sit there?
 Charlie, I didn't know. when you were coming back or if you ever would.
 I tell ya, the men around here don't respect anything.
 I told you all the guys that called me up.
 And then Cliff.
 Cliff didn't make a pass at me, I mean, he didn't even. do it, at all, Charlie.
 I knew what he wanted, but... he never did anything about it.
 And then it just seemed like that two of us just had to.
 [Man speaking:]
 I don't think I'm up for any more of this.
 Why don't you go to bed?
 I'll work this all out.
 [Woman:]
 What are you gonna do?
 [Man:]
 I'm just gonna sit here.
 Or is that what she's waiting on
 a pounding down one standing man?
 To kiss her in a blood embrace
 A victory
 To kiss her in a blood embrace
 Victory
 To kiss her in a blood embrace
 Victory
 To kiss her in a blood embrace
 Victory
