Shane Macgowan,The Popes - The Song With No Name lyrics

Long years ago I fell in love With a lady proud and fair So pa**ionate were she and I We made fire in the air I loved her more than life itself She loved me just the same And it broke my heart To think we'd part if she ended the affair But I was brutal, I was ignorant I was cruel I was brash I never gave a damn about The beauty that I smashed No sadist I, I took delight In making my Love cry Now I'd pray for a single kiss from her To be lashed and crucified And now I feel this lady fair Can never more be mine Long gone are night in my lonely bed All suffering and crying And though I fear that through this life She'll only call me friend Til I'm dead and buried in my grave My Love will never end
