From the recording Low Life, Low Love
Lyrics
O, I know what's right, but do what's wrong
And waste myself all day long
I lied when I said I had a plan
As you can see on my last brain scan
But sometimes I hear music in my head
And I reach out for you lying next to me in bed
Touching the skin of a loved one heels the pain
It's like drinking springtime from a glass of champagne
On my knees I'll ask for your hand in boxing glove
The romantic dreams I have, yes, I'm a fool in love
A fool in love
O, I have sinned, but have an excuse
That's why I propose a truce
We need a fresh breath, a cleansing force
Cos all I feel right now is a deep remorse
I'll destroy my ambitions and change my ways
And hope what we had is enough for future days
Touching the skin of a loved one heals the pain
It's like drinking springtime from a glass of champagne
On my knees I'll ask for your hand in boxing glove
The romantic dreams I have, yes, I'm a fool in love
A fool in love
Some things in life are impossible not to have
But besides pleasure there's other people's happiness
We're gonna die anyway, so we better have a laugh
Cos otherwise it's all so sad and meaningless
I never ceased worshipping, nor could I deceive you
Don't you think my confession to be a breakthrough?
Touching the skin of a loved one heels the pain
It's like drinking springtime from a glass of champagne
On my knees I'll ask for your hand in boxing glove
The romantic dreams I have, yes, I'm a fool in love
