Anatomy Of a Love Affair
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
You got me cheap, wherein I was wounded
Back in the days of woe
You got me cheap, wherein I was wounded
Back in the days of woe
I then deceived us, I then deceived us,
I then deceived us both
You used your lure then sex and affection
To train me like a beast
I left the money be, I left the money be,
I left the money behind
I left the money be, I left the money be
I left the money behind
