Torture
TORTURE
Written and Composed by Jackie Jackson & Kathy Wakefield
It was on a street so evil
So bad that even hell disowned it
Every single step was trouble
For the fool who stumbled on it
Eyes within the dark were watchin\'
I felt the sudden chill of danger
Something told me keep on walkin\'
Told me I should not have gone there
Baby, ’cause you cut me like a knife
Without your love in my life
Alone I walk in the night
’Cause I just can\'t stop this feeling
It\'s torture
It\'s torture
It\'s torture
She was up a stair to nowhere
A room forever I\'ll remember
She stared as though I should have known her
Tell me what\'s your pain or pleasure
Every little thing you find here
Is simply for the thrill you\'re after
Loneliness or hearts on fire
I am here to serve all masters
She said, ’Reality is a knife
When there\'s no love in your life
Unmerciful is the night
When you just can\'t stop this feeling’
It\'s torture
It\'s torture
It\'s torture
And I still can\'t find the meaning, no
No, no, of the face I keep on seeing
Was she real or am I dreaming
Did the sound of your name
Turn a wheel
Start a flame in me
Baby, ’cause you cut me like a knife
Without your love in my life
Alone I walk in the night
And I just can\'t stop this feeling
It\'s torture
It\'s torture
It\'s torture
