Of old lovers & wounds

Tragedy, tragedy

You are someone else's tonight

Your memories, vague memories

Open old wounds with new cruelty.

Your face I search in my dreams

As you say this when I ask you that

And you say that when I ask you this.

But you're saying nothing at all, and you

You put on that smile like it is okay

Like everything is as you want it to be.

And you expect me to be happy.

But I walk a lonely path, misunderstood

While you walk with her, and she with you.

But I dare not dream to be with you

I will not take another's lover

Cursed be the cause of a woman's pain.

And cursed be the day that I met you.

The day you looked at me like I was the one

But now she has got that claim over you.

So I will move away and disappear

That is only the right thing to do.

And I wish I could be happy for you

I wish I could just remain friends

But not like this, when I still remember

And still wonder why it had to go wrong

Or why I had to meet you.
