Verse

Where she walks, no flowers bloom

He's the one I see right through

She's the absinthe on my lips

The splinter in my fingertip

Chorus

 But who could do without you?

 And who could do without you?

Verse

She's the sea I'm sinkin' in

He's the ink under my skin

Sometimes I can't tell where I am

Where I leave off and he begins

Chorus

But who could do without you?

And who could do without you?

Bridge

Oh, we're a pretty, pretty pair, yes we are

All, all the king's horses and all of his men couldn't

  Tear us apart Oooo

  Aaaaah Ooooo

Verse

Dancing with a ball and chain

Through it all we still remain

Butterflies around the flame

Till ashes, ashes, we fade away
