Lyrics for Tonight I Will Retire
Tonight I Will Retire Oh tonight I will retire To the arms of my lover The sweetest kiss she will give As I lay down beside her What will she think When she awakes Just to find I have left here Oh tonight I will retire To these hands with revolver And I don't fear death I will commit Like an old friend I've known forever So come on in, take me on No I won't stay here no longer And if I should taste fire Save me not, I deserve to die And oh tonight I will retire To loving arms of my savior And we will walk through his gates To the skies of Heaven And no more tears will I cry Are my sins, are they forgiven And if I should taste fire Save me not, I deserve to die
