Too Bad

An eskimo can warm himself on ice blocks, it's said

And sheep can get ecstatic over nice flocks, that's true

Illusion can persuade you that it's love at last

And love can cloud your judgement all too fast, god knows

I knew all this before we met, ignored the dangers

Forgot the threat, fell for you

So much i knew, i'd heard it said

I lost my reason, i'd lost my head over you

So now i join the club with all the others, too bad

The others who were once your favourite lovers, too bad

Contentment's just another word for tedium

And men like you can't live without their freedom

That's what i thought, for quite a while

I've learned my lesson, i've learned to smile over you

And every oath that you proclaimed leaves me ice cold

I know that game far too well

So now you join the club with all the others, too bad

The others who were once my favourite lovers

Too sad we had to end it all like this, with tears

But men like you get lonely with the years

Too bad, yeah, too bad
