Serge Gainsbourg
Angel’s Fall
Sorry angel, sorry so
Sorry angel, sorry so
I committed you to suicide, lover
But was it worth the pain?
You drew to a close, for me, not another
Painted red in vain
Sorry angel, sorry so
Sorry angel, sorry so
The countdown started on a four-knuckled hand
One way scalping sold out dreams
You bought it and bled in a broken promised land
You kept your word hid to all but me
Sorry angel, sorry so
Sorry angel, sorry so
I tried to talk you out of it, lover
But your mind was setting sun
A redhead horizon wearing my colours
I miss that painted leather zipped undone
Sorry angel, sorry so
Sorry angel, sorry so
I committed you to suicide, lover
It was me who held the knife you fell on
It's as if I'd pulled the rope tighter
Now you're not here, I am
Sorry angel, sorry so
Sorry angel, sorry so
Sorry angel, sorry so
Sorry angel, sorry so
I committed you to suicide, lover
It was me who held the knife you fell on
It's as if I'd pulled the rope tighter
Now you're not here, I am
Sorry angel, sorry so (I am)
Sorry angel, sorry so
I am…
Sorry angel, sorry so
Sorry angel, sorry so
