Lyrics

She said sorry for everything, sorry too much -
For her broken English
But she didn't know much about a permanent touch.

She made love like a convict,
Or, no, like a dog
And I didn't realise how well she'd leave me paralyzed.

It could have been once or twice, instead of being...
Instead of being once or twice it is the rest of your life.

I was stuck like an idiot,
Or, no, like a pig.
Rutting in twisted sheets.
Rising in misery.
Seen the last of me as I leave.

It could have been once or twice, instead of being the rest of your life.
Instead of being once or tiwce, they got you paying the price.

It could have been once or twice, instead of you paying the price.
Instead of you paying, instead of you paying such a heavy...
Instead of you paying the price!
Instead of you pauying the price,
It could have just been once or twice!
Instead of being once or twice,
It is the rest of your life.
