Alice Francis
Gangsterlove
[Verse 1]
He caught me with the sweetest lullaby
He made me feel like glorious and divine
Invite me for a drink
Blues and tender swing
And then he caught me by sweet lies
It started out that we gonna be friends
And even more, when he popped the question
He gave me roses
Make me the wellness
Clicking his chapeau
But finally one day
Roses fade away
And butterflies they got their wings so deeply
Sweetness has its price
He went out at night
And left me with my broken wing
[Chorus]
When he, went away I
Could not save my, Aching heart
I, I was blinded by the blueness of night
I could not get enough of Gangster love
[Verse 2]
I started getting vertigo at night
Instead of him a pillow by my side
He left me with a ring
Memories of swing
And painful agony inside
When he came I washed his bloody shirts
I took care of his cats, and I had to vet his foods
Instead of roses, he gave me doses
Oh, Oh of Lies
But finally one day, he had to go away
And even though I begged him here to stay
He left with squeaking wheels
Careless of how I feel
I guess this wound will never heal
[Chorus]
When he went away I
Could not save my Aching heart
I, I was blinded by the blueness of night
I could not get enough of Gangster love
[Verse 3]
I thought that you knew that you were mine
Take me cage me like butterflies
I was taken, my heart breaking
Shots and guns, the police and these and that
You got me caught with a lullaby
I can't run even if I try harder to forget
That you left me with dimes and a rings and a bling-blings
[Chorus]
When he, went away I
Could not save my, Aching heart
I, I was blinded by the blueness of night
I could not get enough of Gangster love
[Refrain]
I couldn't get enough of gangster love
Gangster love
