paroles de chanson Living on Mercy - Dan Penn

I don′t eat right anymore
I don't sleep like I did before
All I do is walk the floor
And think about you

I think this desire is killing me
But you keep on thrilling me
Just like a slow sweet poison
I′m addicted to

More dead than alive
But somehow I still survive
I must be living on mercy
Must be living on mercy
Your love nearly killed me
A thousand times

I was in good shape, I was on my feet
Now it's too late, I'm in too deep
Your love is like a quicksand
That won′t let go

Too weak to fight, too done to quit
Too much in love, gotta flow with it
You can′t kill a fever
That's got a hold of your soul

More dead than alive
But somehow I still survive
I must be living on mercy
Got to be living on mercy
′Cause your love nearly killed me
A thousand times

Have mercy on me
Don't ever set me free
It′s good and it's bad
But it′s the best love I've ever had

I must be living on mercy
Must be living on mercy
I got to be living on mercy
Mercy, mercy me
Living on mercy

Living on mercy
Living on mercy
God's mercy, uh-huh
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh

Your love nearly killed me
A thousand times
And I′m still breathing
Thank God
Living through it
Living on mercy

Living on mercy
Every breath I take
Have mercy
Living on mercy
Don′t ever set me free
Just keep handing out that good mercy
Yeah, yeah
