With the gallery we saw her diary
The lights were on for Christmas
We walked into the street
To find a place to eat

British racing green and red
She looked at me

We tore each others hearts out
We ripped each other apart
We tore each others hopes up
We just gave up
Gave up

I can not go on like this
Crazy with dreaming
Freely given, freely taken
Tested to destruction

Oh, British racing green and red
She looked at me

We tore each other's hearts out
We ripped each other apart
We tore each other's hopes up
We just gave up
Gave up
Now you know
That's how things go

We tore each other's hearts out
We ripped each other apart, baby
We tore each other's hopes up
We just gave up
Gave up
