BITTER-SWEET
Released: November 3rd 1998 Length: 4:55 Disc: Velvet Goldmine soundtrack |
Thom and Jonny joined Bernard Butler, Clune, Paul Kimble, and Roxy Music's Andy Mckay to form a super band called The Venus in Furs to record some tracks for the Velvet Goldmine soundtrack. |
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 awhile 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....weidershen And now, as you turn to leave You try to force a smile As if to compensate Then you break down and cry |
