You used to write me letters
You'd send me records in the post
Like 'born [bad word]  by springsteen
You knew the songs i loved the most
But with the sweetest sorrow
I told you some things just won't last

For you and I are passed our dancing days
I said it's not your fault, I lied
I don't have time to watch you cry
I'm thinking Romeo must die- ie, ie- ie etc

I tried to treat you gently
I said I will always be your friend
But neither hands are empty
You don't know how to let this end
So if the sweetest sorrow
Let me spell this out for you

You and I are passed our dancing days
I said it's not your fault, I lied
I don't have time to watch you cry
I'm thinking Romeo must die- ie, ie- ie etc

Do you think I wouldn't notice
As if I wouldn't bat an eye
Did you think that you could hide it
All of your violent lies
(x 2)

I said it's not your fault, I lied
I don't have time to watch you cry
I'm thinking Romeo must die- ie, ie- ie etc
