Unity Mitford Songtext
Arm in arm on the boulevard
Speaking the language that only we know
I'll brush an eyelash from your cheek
I know they'll write books about you
And oh! the crowds and the joyful faces
These people are just backdrop to us
You and I don't even think like they do
You and I we're like a different species

Like Romeo and Juliet
In a bunker, shot through the head
Everything will be beautiful
Everything will be beautiful

Affairs of state and of the heart
I love it when you speak so passionately
We understand how music works
You understand what you mean to me
And oh! the indescribable beauty
Of a million hands raised to salute you
Like poppies lean when winds caress them
Cut flowers pressed to solemn duty

Like Romeo and Juliet
In a bunker, shot through the head
Everything will be beautiful
Everything will be beautiful

This epoch, this century,
These people and this infamy
Where once there was a single summer
That never seemed to turn.
