The Disenchanted - Stephen Duffy

Gentle lady, please don’t cry

Loves just weary, it won’t die

I’m enchanted by you

I’m disenchanted by me

Gentle lady, please don’t sing

That love won’t give you anything

Growing old is calling

Growing up is boring

Gentle lady, please don’t cry

Or I will

Love you forever until I don’t

Love you forever until you won’t

And if forever seems too short

Then we’ll regret the times we fought

Say you love me if you dare

So scared I’ll hurt you or won’t care

But you keep playing hard to get

To my lovesick etiquette

We celebrate the new year well

Like two young virgins for a spell

But when the spell begins to fade

Will we forget that love’s been made?

Say you love me if you dare

So I can

Mundane to Friday, you wear your cashmere sweaters

And leave my love letters at home

But when comes payday you wave my letters

Like some kind of final demand

How can I make you understand that I’ll

Yes, you will, you will regret it
