TENNIS
"Needle And A Knife"
(Alaina Moore / Patrick Riley)

She works hard
Does it all without complaining
She believes that
Sacred things don't need explaining

[Pre-Chorus:]
And the mind is elevated
Though the body, devastated
The inner life of
Sweet sacrifice, yeah
Armed with nothing but a needle and a knife

[Chorus:]
Only a lonely love can devour you
But when you're lonely the same love
Empowers you, yeah

She foresees
Apocalyptic Earth split open
She believes
In something she can put her hope in

[Pre-Chorus 2:]
It's the holiest fixation
And it's taken cultivation
A pioneer in a foreign land, yeah
She's devoted to a real good man

[Chorus:]
Only a lonely love can devour you
But when you're lonely the same love
Empowers you, yeah
