Darling accomplice |
|
Remember when all in this world |
|
Felt like ours to mistreat? |
|
A carpet of fawning and flashbulbs |
|
Spread under our feet |
|
We rightfully took up our places |
|
Among the elite |
|
Our odyssey out of obscurity |
|
Almost complete |
|
And our fate was sealed |
|
When we made that deal |
|
And the words on the page |
|
May as well have been written in blood |
|
Darling accomplice |
|
I never believed for a moment |
|
It ever would end |
|
That we'd be in this shining example |
|
Of bucking the trend |
|
When every breath was a gift |
|
Every stranger a friend |
|
And all that we both had to do |
|
Was keep making pretend |
|
And our fate was sealed |
|
When we made that deal |
|
And the words on the page |
|
May as well have been written in blood |
|
And they wrung our necks |
|
While we cashed our cheques |
|
Til reality brought us both |
|
Crashing to Earth with a thud |
|
And our fate was sealed |
|
When we made that deal |
|
And the words on the page |
|
May as well have been written in blood |
|
And they wrung our necks |
|
While we cashed our cheques |
|
Til reality brought us both |
|
Crashing to Earth with a thud |
