Iodine Lyrics - Cohen Leonard

I needed you, I knew I was in danger 

of losing what I used to think was mine 

You let me love you till I was a failure, 

You let me love you till I was a failure -- 

Your beauty on my bruise like iodine 

I asked you if a man could be forgiven 

And though I failed at love, was this a crime? 

You said, Don't worry, don't worry, darling 

You said, Don't worry, don't you worry, darling 

There are many ways a man can serve his time 

You covered up that place I could not master 

It wasn't dark enough to shut my eyes 

So I was with you, O sweet compassion 

Yes I was with you, O sweet compassion 

Compassion with the sting of iodine 

Your saintly kisses reeked of iodine 

Your fragrance with a fume of iodine 

And pity in the room like iodine
