Lyrics

Remember days of pure enchantment – I saw you running - towards me
The way we felt – the way we touched – the way we gazed at each other – so lovingly
We talked of dreams – and we made plans – looked to that future – with love and hope
But now you’ve changed – and you’re so bitter – it’s the reason now – that I don’t cope

Chorus

And in these days – of discontentment – that leaves me cold – and asking why
How could we build up – so much resentment - that now we don’t see – eye to eye?
It’s come to this - well it’s come to this - well it’s come to this - well it’s come to this

Remember ways of pure enlightment – and happiness – that you gave me
The way you laughed – the way you loved – the way you gave - so openly
We dreamt of things – we’d do together – of all the places – we would see
Never thought you could change so much – never thought you could change – so bitterly

Chorus

And in these days – of discontentment – that leaves me cold – and asking why
How could we build up – so much resentment – that now we don’t see – eye to eye?
It’s come to this - it’s come to this - well it’s come to this - well it’s come to this
I taste your poisoned kiss – well it’s come to this - I taste your poisoned kiss
Well it’s come to this - well it’s come to this

These days – I feel your presence – I watch your moods change – to and fro
These days – we’ve lost that essence – you make me feel - so god damned low
It’s even hard – to take a rest – when you’re permanently putting me – to the test
This thin threaded dividing line – that switchblade mechanism – of your mind

Chorus

And in these days – of discontentment – that leaves me cold – and asking why
How could we build up – so much resentment – that now we don’t see – eye to eye?
It’s come to this - well it’s come to this - well it’s come to this - well it’s come to this
I taste your poisoned kiss – well it’s come to this - I taste your poisoned kiss
Well it’s come to this - I hear your distant hiss - I hear your distant hiss
I hear your distant hiss - well it’s come to this
