Hail Mary - Louis Philippe

I placed a candle, but my lover’s

Join my hands expecting a miracle

She left me instead

When I asked if my hand had untied the knot

She said, «don't be foolish, I don’t mind at all»

«I love him not»

Don’t lie again until our lives have changed

And it’s better now than it has ever been

Your words can hurt and hurt they do

Enjoy your triumph, and let me beg you on my knees

Hail Mary

Hail Mary

The words we used then don’t mean much to me

Words like swear, love, and eternal soul

Oh, we were born free

You haven’t changed much, or so I’ve been told

But the warmth of the skin that I loved to touch

Has now turned to cold

Don’t lie again until our lives have changed

And it’s better now than it has ever been

Your words can hurt and hurt they do

Enjoy your triumph, and let me beg you on my knees

Hail Mary

Hail Mary
