Of Minor Prophets and Their Prostitute Wives

[Verse 1] All the time you were burning my letters You were only acting the part You think without me you'll get on much better But you don't even know your own heart [Chorus] Come home, darling Come home quickly Come home, darling All is forgiven, so come home quickly [Verse 2] I treated you as if you were a princess You treated me like a cop I gave you boundaries to save you from certain death Dangling from the end of the rope [Chorus] [Bridge] But you're still playing for a love you'll never find Outside of these arms of mine [Verse 3] The whole town is one step behind you With the hangman on call They've got the judge and you're convicted without a plea But darling, they will listen to me Darling, they will listen to me But darling, they will listen to me
