The sun rolls slowly down again The dark it comes but I can’t say when
[Carl Barât] Sweetness sit down I’ve got something to say I fucked up again in a terrible way I’m a long way from home I’ve done wrong I’m afraid But I need you to remember the pact that we made
[Vanessa Paradis] Tell me dear lover things can’t be that bad This won’t be the first time that you make me sad But if you have done what I think it may be Your words will be worthless and you will be free
[Refrain]
[Carl Barât] Love twisted me up with its passion and claws Now it haunts me to madness with the ghost of remorse She was evil harlot who threatened our cause And now she lies here on the bathroom floor
[Vanessa Paradis] Oh lord please have mercy ! Oh what did you do You did this to hurt me tell me it’s not true I know that you fucked her and that’s what it’s worth Was she better than me? Your heart must be cursed
[Refrain]
[Carl Barât & Vanessa Paradis] I’m lonely I’m lost and I’m wild at sea Won’t you please let me in, I can barely breathe I’m broken I’m lonely I’m lost as can be But darling darling it has to be
[Carl Barât] I was lonely and foolish she was nothing to me Like a moth to a candle I was too drunk to see My sweetness my sweetness I was just a boy And now I’m a killer my life is destroyed
[Vanessa Paradis] Oh come to me baby she was nothing to us She’s no longer around it was just your drunk lust Whatever you did there’s a pact that we made From the day we first kissed till we lie in our graves
