Somewhere in the north Amid the drunken hunting ground Upon a sticky night club floor A wilting rose I found I snatched her from the clutches Of an evil smelling bore I said, \"I think it's over now,\" She said, \"I’m not so sure.\"
We quick-stepped into love Like Fred and Ginger in a trance At all the most exclusive balls Always we dreamt to dance The snakes and devils of our past Were scrupulously ignored I said, \"I think it's over now,\" She said, \"I’m not so sure.\"
The windswept kisses on the dunes The lonely ships at sea Around the Cape of Vain Hope The gods smile on her and me \"If you’re reading this you’ve come too far,\" The sign read on the door. I said, \"I think it's over now,\" She said, \"I’m not so sure.\"
To save us from ourselves We turned our fury on each other She crucified my confidence I’d hung to to recover We’d tighten up the thumbscrews And still scream out for more I said, \"I think it's over now,\" She said, \"I’m not so sure.\"
We followed every line To where the end always begins Presented our credentials and They gladly let us in We washed in filthy sin and We grew rotten to the core I said, \"I think it's over now,\" She said, \"I’m not so sure.\"
Our merry dance was over Every shred of love was gone Everything that once seemed right Turned out to be so wrong I woke up on the sofa Found her suitcase in the hall She said, \"I think it's over now,\" I said nothing at all.
