Charlotte Gainsbourg The Operation Lyrics

The Operation Lyrics

I want to explore you, I'm gonna get under your skin

So you can feel me running through your veins

I want to examine every inch of your frame

The pressure points that cause your joy and pain



Our love goes under the knife

There is no room for doubt



Now I'm inside you, my hands can feel their way

Further inside than I have ever been

Now I can really mess around with your heart

And fill it to the brim with broken dreams



Our love goes under the knife

Two lives may be saved



And if I pull this off, I'll refuse the noble prize

Instead I will look into your eyes

If I pull this off your whole body will be mine

And I'm prepared to work throughout the night



Our love goes under the knife

Nothing is taboo here on the cutting edge of science



Too much information, I feel I'm getting lost

Absorbed into the fiber of your soul

Deep within the abattoir of your entrails, your insides

Lost in you forever far from home



Our love goes under the knife

Someone got too close

Our love goes under the knife

The heart was rejected by the host
