There is nothing poetic about us
It’s neither beautiful nor pure
We thought we would last forever,
How could we be so sure?
Nothing was said at the end
Nothing was said before
We thought we would last forever,
How could we be so sure?

There was nothing poetic about us
Or about the love we made
We were just waiting impatiently
For that vision of us to fade.
I knew we had nothing in common
And that our opposites did not attract
But we thought we would last forever,
Why were we certain of that?

Tell me how you thought we could
Live in harmony
When I knew nothing about you
And you knew nothing of me.
Tell me how you thought we could
Stay together as one
After I found out the real you
And found out the things you’d done.

Either way our love was doomed
To end right from the start.
We always knew deep inside
That one day we would have to part.
And they who all thought we were perfect
Believed we were meant to last
How on earth could I tell them
That I didn’t love you from the heart?
