Spit Of Love — текст песни (Bonnie Raitt)

There`s a howlin at my window, baby
I hear him closin in
That green-eyed jackal`s got the scent
Knows I`ll let him in
He slinks in by me at the fire
More bitter than the cold
And it`s a rage as old as Hades
That`ll sputter on these coals
I`m callin on the Furies, to let the toast begin
I`m roasting on the spit of love again
I never have believed you
But I stick around for more
Somethin bout that hollow in your eyes
There`s a darkness at the core
Well, it`s got me slowly turnin
I`m basting on the bone
I`m skewered like some drunken fool
In juices all my own
Callin the Furies` carrion choir
Singin me back upon the pyre
I`m roasting on that spit of love again
You can call it what you want
But it`s lyin just the same
There`s no mercy in these ashes, baby
When your love`s a cryin shame
And they`re howlin in moonlight, baby
They`re here to call my bluff
they`re wonderin if there`ll ever come a day
When I`ll have finally had enough
I`m callin on the Furies, to let the toast begin
I`m roasting on that spit of love again
