To a girl on the West Side You kiss the beast, took her hand and Made her your bride. It all went wrong In a spiral nightmare There's nothing left Except to stand in the mirror and stare. All you had It all got wasted The better food It all got tasted No longer French, just the language of love is lost. You got caught and now you pay the cost. Sitting by the phone It never seems to ring anymore Looking at your past Spread out before you on the floor You count the days like minutes On your carpet pool You dial a number It means you all wasted smoke. All you had It all got wasted The better food It all got tasted No longer French just the language of love is lost You got caught and now you pay the cost. It's a shame youy life got in the way Drips of conversation, fillers just for a day That's okay, Yeah All you had It all got wasted The better food It all got tasted No longer French just the language of love is lost You got caught and now you pay the cost. It's not much to ask In these fast and furious times But being in love always seems To be some kind of unwritten crime Unwritten crime, yeah All you had It all got wasted The better food It all got tasted No longer French just the language of love is lost You got caught and now you pay the cost.
