Astrid do you recall the Sundays at the Spa with double straws

From a carton with a heart on

Who could ask for more

You'd assure me you'd support me

As I tried to write that novel

In the hovel we called home

You'd mow the lawn

You'd pay the bills

You touched me there

You touched me there

The shock of kontakt kept us warm

The shock of kontakt kept us warm

The shock of kontakt kept us warm

Astrid you kept your word

You never said a word

As I ripped up the pages

Spent your wages

Entertaining friends you hated

Making bombs

I planted them in galleries

Your salary it was wasted oh how criminal

They cut the power

They pulled the plug

They took away the phone

We're quite alone

We share a candle in the cellar

Oh you touched me there

The shock of kontakt kept us warm

The shock of kontakt kept us warm

The shock of kontakt kept us warm warm warm warm warm

And Astrid as sure as blue skies always turn to grey

They came with guns

I tried to run

And you took all the blame

They took you and I never said a word

And now you never say a word

As I lean through the bars

I whisper my apologies

Oh Jesus you stare clean through me

You cut me down

Still I touch you there

I touch you there

The shock of kontakt keeps us warm

I touch you there

The shock of kontakt keeps us warm
