The Venus in Furs - Bitter-Sweet lyrics
[The Venus in Furs - Bitter-Sweet lyrics]
Well, this is such a sad affair
I've opened up my heart so many times
But now it's closed
Oh my dear every salted tear
It wrings bitter-sweet applause
But when the show's in full swing
Every once in a while
High stepping chorus lines
Mean I'm forgetting mein lullaby - liebchen
How rich in contrast love can be
Sometimes I'm quite amused
To see it twist and turn
To taste both sweet and dry
These vintage years
Lovers you consume, my friend
As others their wine
Nein - das ist nicht das ende der Welt
Gestrandet an Leben und Kunst
Und das spiel geht weiter wie man weiss
Noch viele 'schoum', wiedersehen
And now, as you turn to leave
You try to force a smile as if to compensate
Then you break down and cry
I've opened up my heart so many times
But now it's closed
Oh my dear every salted tear
It wrings bitter-sweet applause
But when the show's in full swing
Every once in a while
High stepping chorus lines
Mean I'm forgetting mein lullaby - liebchen
How rich in contrast love can be
Sometimes I'm quite amused
To see it twist and turn
To taste both sweet and dry
These vintage years
Lovers you consume, my friend
As others their wine
Nein - das ist nicht das ende der Welt
Gestrandet an Leben und Kunst
Und das spiel geht weiter wie man weiss
Noch viele 'schoum', wiedersehen
And now, as you turn to leave
You try to force a smile as if to compensate
Then you break down and cry
