Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I have a fair love to whom I'm not true
For this, I've no reason that'd satisfy you
I thought myself a gentleman and kind
Yet, to her good soul and beauty, I've willed myself blind
[Chorus]
You are my cutting knife
You cut me through and through
Darlin', you are my cutting knife
Your blade is sharp and true, dear
Your blade is sharp and true
[Verse 2]
She visits me nightly in the dreamy deep
Where I walk from door-to-door with these secrets I keep
Her sweet arms around me, I toss and I turn
Her reigns of mercy, holding me as I burn
[Chorus]
You are my cutting knife
You cut me through and through
You are my cutting knife
Your blade is sharp and true, dear
Your blade is sharp and true
[Verse 3]
The truth in your eyes washes over me
As I measure my cruelty to the finest degree
I built a house for this love that tears us apart
There I sup on your trust and I dine on your heart
[Chorus]
You are my cutting knife
You cut me through and through
Darlin', you are my cutting knife
Your blade is sharp and true, dear
Your blade is sharp and true
[Chorus]
You are my cutting knife
You cut me through and through
Darlin', you are my cutting knife
Your blade is sharp and true
Your blade is sharp and true
