You made promises you couldn’t keep   Our love died painless in its sleep   We get up as the sun goes down   Out with him to paint the town      The white devil kills us slowly      So, tempers fray then silence reigns   And both of us get wet    The romance has died   But we’re still very much alive      The white devil kills us slowly       This England is a prison cell   Where all that’s well does not end well   I wander lonely as a clown   While you and he go paint the town      You made promises you couldn’t keep   Our love died painless in its sleep      So tempers fray then silence reigns   And both of us get wet    The romance has died   But we’re still very much alive      The white devil kills us slowly
