GBmone was my lover, flAeeingG  
Weeping for what's gDone

Well, it's early moCrning, I'm taking your haBmnd
Try to belAieve, my love, I undeGrstandEm  
The harder, the harder, the harder it cDomes
[Verse 2]

Vying fGor a glimpse, loDve
But since you refuDsed me and nGo such thing exiDsts, love
ThBmought it would last a lifAe-timeG  
Arms that get turned awDay
