about

Lyrics by Alan Stuart. Initially we thought about a flat out blues track - but I was tutuing on a keyboard with a gut guitar sound and BOOM there it was - a rock number. Includes a wee tribute to Jenny Morris!
AMPLIFIER said:
Kill Me With Your Promise comes as another great driving number halfway through the album. This is one of the best examples of guitar work on Trippin' the Light, beautifully produced to sound raw and gritty whilst also being easy on the ear.

lyrics

Kill Me With Your Promise

© Lyrics Alan Stuart/Music Julie Lamb

Can't say I wasn't warned

My love came fully formed

Body and soul, the total deal

Made me feel the way I like to feel

Can't say I wasn't glad

To love you good, to love you bad

Body and soul, box and dice

Burn like fire, freeze like ice

Why do you kill me with your promise

Kill me with your smile

Kill me with your presence

Leave me dying all the while

Why do you kill me with your promise

Kill me with your kiss

Kill me with your absence

Leave me dying filled with bliss

Can't say I wasn't crying

My love knew you were lying

Body and soul, books and all

Walk away, walk away when I took the fall

Why do you kill me with your promise

Kill me with your smile

Kill me with your presence

Leave me dying all the while

Why do you kill me with your promise

Kill me with your kiss

Kill me with your absence

Leave me dying filled with bliss

Leave me dying, dying killed with bliss
