Perfifia - Ben E. King

To you

My heart cries out «Perfidia»

For I find you, the love of my life

In somebody else’s arms

Your eyes are echoing «Perfidia»

Forgetful of the promise of love

You’re sharing another’s charms

With a sad lament my dreams are faded like a broken melody

While the gods of love look down and laugh

At what romantic fools we mortals be

And now, I know* my love was not for you

And so I take it back with a sigh

Perfidious one, Goodbye

With a sad lament my dreams are faded like a broken melody

While the gods of love look down and laugh

At what romantic fools we mortals be

And now, I know* my love was not for you

And so I take it back with a sigh

Perfidious one, goodbye

Goodbye
