about
A Shakespearean chorus about a relationship's doomed fate from the start.
lyrics
The times were hard right from the start, but we thought that we could handle it
I didn’t know, you ran from your heart, I see now you were managing
I fell in love and fell apart, I hear it’s a common happening
I seemed to have crossed some fated stars, and can’t seem to begin again
Better try anyway, cause baby I don’t need you, but I want you to stay
I’m trying to show you the way, so darling let me see you, I’ll lead us to better days
The times were good, like I knew we could, and I finally knew happiness
Ancient friend, found once again, the knowledge of your sweet caress
He left my finger raw and asked forever after
You put your trust in that green god, but what about the Woman?
Better try anyway, cause baby I don’t need you, but I want you to stay
I’m trying to show you the way, so darling let me see you, I’ll lead us to better days
At last the man, a partner true, grew weary with the same old blues
I didn’t know quite what to do, for I had fought his demons too
The night had turned to something sharp, believe me love it was the lark
Safely hidden from the dark, it was the curse from the start
Better try anyway, cause baby I don’t need you, but I want you to stay
I’m trying to show you the way, so darling let me see you, I’ll lead us to better days
Better try anyway, cause baby I don’t need you, but I want you to stay
I’m trying to show you the way, so darling let me see you, I’ll lead us to better days
