I sit here engulfed in your scent With the word “ if ” screaming repent , repent , repent !
And lacking the conviction I had as I packed my bags ,
Are we not torn ?
But now that I ’ ve left Now that I ’ m gone
We would be torn in two .
If I had stayed , If I hadn ’ t left
Who knew that your radiance within Was destined to cast shadows across my skin ?
You knew we had so many hidden flaws ? Who could tell we would not last ?
The world tutted in scorn And pulled you away .
My lovely , my princess , my precious babe , As you suckled on my breast
And likewise you for me .
So you ’ d never forgive me , mi amor I ’ ve struck you so deep .
You ’ ll never understand , mon cher Why we could never be –
And likewise me for you .
I love you , my sweet You had me unwound .
I miss you , my dear My melancholy mistress .
