The Sweetest Embrace

From the album oedipus schmoedipus by barry adamson



Our time is done my love

We've laid it all to waste

One thousand moonlit kisses

Can't sweeten this bitter taste

My desire for you is endless

And i'll love you 'till we fall

I just don't want you no more

And that's the sweetest embrace of all





To think we can find happiness

Hidden in a kiss

Ah, to think we can find happiness

That's the greatest mistake there is

There is nothing left to cling to babe

There is nothing left to soil

I just don't want you no more

And that's the sweetest embrace of all





Ooohhh where did it begin

When all we did was lose

There's nothin' left to win





So lay your weapons down

They serve no purpose in your hands

And if you wanna hold me

Then go ahead and hold me

I won't upset your plans

If it's revenge you want

Then take it babe

Or you can walk right out the door

I just don't want you anymore

And that's the sweetest embrace of all





Ooohhh where did it begin

When all we did was lose

There's nothin' left to win





It's over babe

And it really is a shame

We are losers you and me babe

In a rigged and crooked game

My desire for you is endless

And i love you most of all

I just don't want you no more

And that's the sweetest embrace of all
