Wang Chung - Betrayal текст песни

(wang chung / peter wolf)

We met as friends of friends while still at school

I was all you ever really knew

When we met it was like a dream

For all I knew we could not fail

But now I know of your betrayal

Living in the older part of town

I worked all hours I could to bring us round

Your career was alive for you

But deep inside I watched it fail

And now I know of your betrayal

Your betrayal

If only I could hold you close

But now I know how love grows frail

When I asked if youd leave me

Or bout the boyfriends youd had

You said youd stay with me always

And that youd never be bad

But I would notice a smile

That you would hold within

As if your vanity flirted

With your knowledge of sin

Now youre quiet and cold

Your eyes just stare into space

And if I ask you to talk

You just dissemble your face

And the smile that I hated

Is now a frown of denial

And thats how I know of your unspoken betrayal

Oh, thats how I know of your unspoken betrayal

Now I wish that Id set you free

But I was terrified that I would fail

And now I know of your betrayal

Your betrayal

If only I could hold you close

But now I know how love grows frail

Oh now I know of your betrayal

Now I know of your betrayal
