lyrics

“Autopsy For A Sordid Affair”
©2021 Tom Deedy and Hugh Birdsall

What have we here?
A real look inside
What went wrong
Without taking sides
What have we here?
No place to hide
When we belong
We fly

Burned too hot
Just couldn’t stop
Almost shot
It happens
Frozen out
Like a lout
Falling apart, Wings flapping

What have we here?
Two strong hearts
Neither one of them
Ever forgot

What have we here?
Two one track minds
Frozen in love
Doing time

Burned too fast
Could not last
All tests passed
It happens
Ice and snow
Seem to know
The afterglow, And trappings

What have we here?
No one to blame
Nothing is the same
We’re both acting lame
What have we here?
A sordid affair
Beyond repair with
Nothing left to share

What have we here?
So very dear
Dangerously near
Perfume lingers in the air
What have we here?
The sad remains of love
The sad remains of love…
