[Verse]
Like dark whiskey cuts through ice
Like a train whistle cuts right through a delta night
Like a hot Texas wind cuts through a back door screen
Baby you cut through me
Like wild roses take old graveyards back
Like the levees in New Orleans gave when the water came on fast
The way eyes of blue will pierce right through an old black and white memory
Baby you cut through me
[Chorus]
And if I had an iron will, an armor forged in Detroit steel
I would not have what it’d take to fight off the way this feels
If I was made of solid stone, I wouldn’t be that way for long
Cause baby you cut through me
Oh baby you cut through me
[Verse]
Here I am at your mercy again, no chance at all like a candle in the wind
Why try to hide this weakness like it’s something you can’t see
When baby you cut through me
Oh baby you cut through me
[Chorus]
And if I had an iron will, an armor forged in Detroit steel
I would not have what it’d take to fight off the way this feels
If I was made of solid stone, I wouldn’t be that way for long
Cause baby you cut through me
Oh baby you cut through me
Like dark whiskey cuts through ice
Like a train whistle cuts right through a delta night
