Lyrics for I Burnt Your Clothes

I had no knife but myself, It was me I cut but you bled as well How could I help my dear sweet pretty one? When I could not put down the gun. And I don't know your name Sweet baby Jane. You'll find it unbelievable, I left you in the hospital, And you don't have a stitch to wear 'Cos the doctors cut the clothes right off your back And guess what I don't care About who or what or when or where And Heaven knows; I burnt your clothes. That's it, there's no road left to run. I spilt myself 'til I had none. I grew thorns upon your path, They struck not at your feet but at your heart. Still don't know your name, Sweet baby Jane. You'll find it unbelievable, I left you in the hospital, And you don't have a stitch to wear 'Cos the doctors cut the clothes right off your back And guess what I don't care About who or what or when or where And Heaven knows; I burnt your clothes. I howled outside your door, I was the wolf but I'll return no more. This life is black, and running through a Heart that's cursed, I lost the best, But can I lose the worst? I'll soon know your name, Sweet baby Jane. You'll find it unbelievable, I left you in the hospital, And you don't have a stitch to wear 'Cos the doctors cut the clothes right off your back And guess what I don't care About who or what or when or where And Heaven knows; I burnt your clothes. I burnt your clothes Burnt your clothes I know your name Sweet baby Jane.
