Song | When Romance Is Dead |
Artist | The Beautiful South |
Album | Superbi |
[00:07.39] | You’ll know when romance is dead |
[00:11.14] | Your make up in a toolbox somewhere in the shed |
[00:15.20] | His face is unshaven, the grass overgrown |
[00:19.01] | From the shed to the bed is a web you call home |
[00:23.83] | You’ll know when romance is dead |
[00:30.08] | That deathly cold blast from his side of the bed |
[00:34.33] | Your dreams frozen over, your nightmares on ice |
[00:38.39] | From the bedroom to the bathroom you say everything twice |
[00:42.76] | (Everything twice) |
[00:47.33] | And you’ll know when romance is dead |
[00:51.64] | You’ll burst into tears at each record that’s played |
[00:55.64] | He sits in the sun, you sulk in the shade |
[00:59.52] | You’ll know when love starts to fade |
[01:05.83] | You’ll know when romance is dead |
[01:09.27] | From the brambles and thorns growing out of your head |
[01:13.59] | Whenever you touch her she tuts or she sighs |
[01:17.64] | One kiss goodnight and she’s rolling her eyes |
[01:21.59] | |
[01:26.29] | And you’ll know when love starts to fade |
[01:30.10] | That balancing act is no longer made |
[01:34.16] | Like penny stacked high in amusement arcade |
[01:37.91] | It’s not what youworth it’’re s the way that you’re laid |
[01:41.10] | Yes you’ll know when love starts to fade |
[01:47.29] | Like you knew when romance was alive |
[01:50.79] | Each couple you passed they’d smile and high five |
[01:54.91] | Like you’ll know when love’s back on track |
[01:58.29] | Uncontrollable laugh at each joke that you crack |
[02:01.98] | Giggle and cackle and throw her head back |
[02:05.85] | Her mouth is still smiling, her veins turning black |
[02:09.22] | Her head is elastic but her neck is all slack |
[02:13.16] | |
[02:16.99] | You’ll know when love’s on the rocks |
[02:20.18] | You wearing headphones, him vest and socks |
[02:24.24] | You’ll know when love’s on the slide |
[02:27.74] | Whenever you’re talking, the kids go outside |
[02:31.74] | |
[02:36.44] | You’ll know when romance is dead |
[02:39.63] | When the look that you get is as hard as the bread |
[02:43.63] | You open your mouth but your stories are stale |
[02:47.38] | From front door to back door it’s blowing a gale |
[02:51.13] | You’ll know when love starts to fade |
[00:07.39] | You' ll know when romance is dead |
