Who would have thought
That you could hurt me
The way you’ve done it?
So deliberate, so determined

And since you have been gone
I bite my nails for days and hours
And question my own questions on and on

So tell me now, tell me now
Why you’re so far away
When I’m still so close

You don’t even know the meaning of the words “I’m sorry”
You said you would love me until you die
And as far as I know you’re still alive, baby
You don’t even know the meaning of the words “I’m sorry”
I’m starting to believe it should be illegal to deceive a woman’s heart

I tried so hard to be attentive
To all you wanted
Always supportive, always patient
What did I do wrong?
I’m wondering for days and hours
It’s clear, it isn’t here where you belong

Anyhow, anyhow
I wish you both all the best
I hope you get along

But you don’t even know the meaning of the words “I’m sorry”
You said you would love me until you die
And as far as I know you’re still alive, baby
You don’t even know the meaning of the words “I’m sorry”
I’m starting to believe it should be illegal to deceive a woman’s heart

You don’t even know the meaning of the words “I’m sorry”
You said you would love me until you die
And as far as I know you’re still alive, baby
You don’t even know the meaning of the words “I’m sorry”
I’m starting to believe it should be illegal to deceive a woman’s heart

Open heart
Open heart
It should be illegal to deceive a woman’s heart

Open heart
Open heart
It should be illegal to deceive a woman’s heart
