Lyrics

Theres a hole in my universe tonight
Heaven and Hell have conspired outright.
Out goes my everlasting light
Britain is in ruins and the world ignites
I knew it!
It wasn’t meant to be…
Now all my dreams go fading in the sunset
Dying on the vine.
Burning like a comet out of time
And you must have fifty lucky winners who could give to you
Fontainebleau , Xanadu,
A honeymoon on the Riviera
You! Though my perfect world has fallen through
I offer you the bitter fruit, the bitter pill
The bitter truth, they’ll remember us forever
As a lovely pair of perfect fools.

Shine a light on my ignorance tonight
Ex-lovers rejoice and say “It serves you right!”
Down comes the curtain on the sight
Egg on my jacket as I exit stage right
I knew it
It wasn’t meant for me
And all my friends say “You really blew it this time
You better lay low! You’ve always been trouble!
We told you so!”
Now you must have fifty lucky winners who could give to you
Fontainebleau , Xanadu,
A honeymoon on the Riviera
You! Though my perfect world is falling through
I offer you the bitter fruit, the bitter pill
The bitter truth.
Join me in the embers!
Together we’re a pair of perfect fools.
