I never knew that our romance had ended
Until you poisoned my food
And I thought it was a lark
When you kicked me in the park
But now I think it was rude
I never knew that our romance had finished
Until that bottle hit my head
Though I tried to be aloof
When you pushed me off the roof
I feel our romance is dead
It wouldn't have been so bad if you'd told me
If you told me that someone had suddenly taken my place
But no, you didn't even scold me
You just tried to disfigure my face
You'll never know how my poor heart is breaking
It looks so helpless, but then
Our life could still be sweet and placid
If you'd just put down that acid
And say we're sweethearts again
You'll never know how my poor heart is breaking
It looks so helpless, but then
Our life could still be sweet and placid
If you'd just put down that acid
And say we're sweethearts again
Until you poisoned my food
And I thought it was a lark
When you kicked me in the park
But now I think it was rude
I never knew that our romance had finished
Until that bottle hit my head
Though I tried to be aloof
When you pushed me off the roof
I feel our romance is dead
It wouldn't have been so bad if you'd told me
If you told me that someone had suddenly taken my place
But no, you didn't even scold me
You just tried to disfigure my face
You'll never know how my poor heart is breaking
It looks so helpless, but then
Our life could still be sweet and placid
If you'd just put down that acid
And say we're sweethearts again
You'll never know how my poor heart is breaking
It looks so helpless, but then
Our life could still be sweet and placid
If you'd just put down that acid
And say we're sweethearts again
