about
Hello friends and lovers, this is Davey Stranger. Thank you for taking a moment to listen to my first published work, a somber piece titled "Unrequited Life". I hope that it brings a light to the darkness of your world.
lyrics
Lying in bed
Thinking of the things you said
"I love you too" (i really love you)
But now really, do you?
When I took you hand in mine
And looked into your eyes
I thought for just a moment that I
Saw through your disguise
Night into day
All I know is turning grey
Death calls to me (come closer, Davey)
An end to misery
All those things you said to me
Are ashes on my grave
So I'd rather end myself than live here as your slave
Kiss me goodbye
Hold me one last time
Before i should die
You should see your crime
Kiss me goodbye
Love is like a knife
Take me away
From this Unrequited Life
From this Unrequited Life...
Lying in bed
Thinking of the things you've said
Life slips away (don't be scared)
I won't see another day
Looking at this photograph
I'm happy in your arms
Now i know that I've become a victim of your charms
Kiss me goodbye
Hold me one last time
Before i should die
You will see your crime
Kiss me goodbye
Your love is like a knife
Take me away
From this Unrequited Life
