Pictured how I was gonna do itJust turn up at his artist studioBoldly knock on the doorHe'd answer it dishevelledLying in a pool of paintAs part of an installation on the floorThen I'd calmly say 'Hello, my name's Charlie and I know that you're in love with my girlfriend'Then I'd knock him spark out and walk back homeStill unsure whether blood was on my hand or just red paint.And you'll love me once againAnd you'll love me for my show of strengthAnd you'll feel safe from harmAnd you'll hold me and you'll love me once againBut that's not how it happenedCause he wrote to you every dayMostly letters, sometimes sketches with no wordsAnd you kept them hidden awayCause you just couldn't throw them outAnd because you couldn't bear to see me hurtBut oh, you tried so hard to love me with all your heartBut your love for me got wounded in the frontlineAnd when I tried to make you laugh like I used to in the bathYou'd turn away before I made it to the punchlineSongtexteWhen I looked at your face and compared it to our early daysYou knew you couldn't keep the truth from me any moreSo you opened up a box of magazinesAnd hundreds of his letters poured out like a ravineAnd when I said that you should go to himYou had that look back in your eyes like you loved me againAnd I told you it would break my heartBut if you really loved him then I guess we had to partYeah, I told you it would break my heartBut if you really loved him then I guess we had to partYeah, I told you it would break my heartBut if you really loved him then I guess we had to partYeah, I did it all for youI did it all for you Aus Songtexte Mania
