It Wouldn’t Last Lyrics by Arlekin

The Secret Garden

0

It wouldn't last, I always knew this
You were too fast, I was too stupid
And all these flowers, all these poems
All these places, all these dates, all these sweets
They were empty, they were fiction, they were fake
Just like your taste on my lips
Just a few weeks, it's all so sudden
A northern rose from the secret garden
I didn't feel that we were made to be together
But who needs perfect pairs?
Who needs suffering and jealousy
Depression, disappointment, despair?
And if you speak to me, don't hide your face, just look and see
What have we done to be the orphans of our memories
And if you try to find the refuge from what's chasing us
Remember this ain't love but lust
And it wouldn't last
I call your name lying drunk in bed
I know it's lame, I shouldn't have said that
I can't remember properly your number
But I think it's ending with nine
Why should I call you if I know
That all you gonna say is "thank you, I'm fine"
Don't call it love, don't be pathetic
Attempts to cry, you'll never make it
Why can't we be just kinda honest with each other
After all we've been through
Don't try to speculate, don't try to pigeonhole it
With these words "I love you"
And if you speak to me, don't hide your face, just look and see
What have we done to be the orphans of our memories
And if you try to find the refuge from what's chasing us
Remember this ain't love but lust
And it wouldn't last
