I Can Only Disappoint U Lyrics

I travelled from Dublin
You said you'd change the world
You sing like Sinatra, always

You've pulled 'em for miles now
Like Garbo in Berlin
You played 'em for zeros, just like always

Tonight, some bitch is hassling me
And tonight, it feels so good feeling cheap

I can only disappoint you
Cos I always let you down
I can only disappoint you
Cos I always let you down

You turned a man cuckoo
Half animal, half grace
The chick was a teaser, always

Tonight, their hips would swivel and turn
So we drove to the place where we first met

I can only disappoint you
Cos I always let you down
I can only disappint you, always

The Queens, they all loved you
The tall, the short, the fair
(la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la)
The sailors, the psychos, always

And here, I faltered, gun in my hand
And you, with "piggies" scrawled on your wall

And tonight, her note said "Better off dead"
And the Earth has never moved for me since

I can only disappoint you
Cos I always let you down
I can only disappoint you, always

I can only disappoint you
Cos I always let you down
I can only disappoint you
Cos I always let you down

Cos I always let you down
Cos I always let you down
Cos I always let you down
Cos I always let you down
I always let you down
Cos I always let you down
I always let you down

the truest of loves, pass away the opertunity of love cause you know you'll hurt the other person too much. This song almost made me cry.

I love this song, reminds me of times things should have flared up with people but instead love died and nothing happened.

I never thought i could love a song with only two chords, but then this came and slapped me in the face.

agree with the first comment

"And here, I faltered, gun in my hand And you, with "piggies" scrawled on your wall"

reference to the Tate-murder, but why i do not know.
