Song language: English
So Long My Lover |
| We met when hope was oh so young |
| I took you from that drunken bum |
| And held you like some father |
| And we both mourned for each other |
| Oh yes we were so full or hope than that you see |
| You’d be a dancer, and a singer me |
| You danced your dance and my sweet song was sung |
| I was wreckless, you were free |
| i took you round the world with me |
| So holy together |
| No devils could tear us apart |
| The lights were bright on Portland Street |
| And with the future at our feet |
| we held onto each other |
| But somewhere lost our way |
| So long, my lover |
| It’s over |
| Who was that boy that you did see |
| Did having him bring you closer to me? |
| so blindly you swung from the hook that our love hung from |
| But retribution does come soon |
| Two lovers in a hotel room |
| You danced your dance and my sweet song was sung |
| So Long, My Lover |
| It’s Over |
| Fragile wings |
| In a silver castle |
| And love that’s wrought |
| Too hard and fast |
| I guess that’s how it came to be |
| My dancing girl skipped away from me |
| I was blind i could not see |
| The mirror cracked in front of me |
| Darling girl please understand |
| There’s no blood on your pretty hands |
| So Long, my lover |
| It’s Over |
