LYRICS
Tears fall left and right
No hope in sight
Like heavy syrup
For sorrow pancakes so flat
Keep it light forever
Not realising my own fate
It’s great the weight upon me now
Nothing for me nowhere
But the emptiness I feel
Depression has got me down
Drilling for the kill
It’s too late to suffer through
God I’ll make you a deal
Just let me smile a while for real
And when the evening comes
I’ll be on the run
You were the only one
That sure was fun
To me it’s never been any better
And no kind of love has ever been any greater
Than you, for me, I can tell
You shone like a sacred goddess in love
Like a psycho hot as the sun
Until we meet again
I won’t give up
It’s such a wonder for us
Our inner chorus
And so it starts, the alligator
When you appeared from never forever
And you smiled on my poor suffering soul
Blessed child you are my treasure
Can’t you see it’s all an illusion?
I love you more than myself
I love you more than myself
I love you more than myself
I love you more than myself
I love you more than myself
And I wish to see you again
And I wish to see you again
And I wish to see you again
And I wish to see you again
And I wish to see you again
Again
