You made promises you couldn't keep
Our love died painless in its sleep
We get up as the sun goes down
Out with him to paint the town
The white devil kills us slowly
So, tempers fray then silence reigns
And both of us get wet
The romance has died
But we're still very much alive
The white devil kills us slowly
This England is a prison cell
Where all that's well does not end well
I wander lonely as a clown
While you and he go paint the town
You made promises you couldn't keep
Our love died painless in its sleep
So tempers fray then silence reigns
And both of us get wet
The romance has died
But we're still very much alive
The white devil kills us slowly
