In walks the villain of this talenThe door closing silent behind younI smile and I offer you something to drinknIn the hopes that a taste will remind younThat poison goes better with grenadinenThat deceit's always lovely with limenThat bitterness can be so sweet nWhen it's served in the right place and at the right timenAnd we'll toast to a lifetime of happinessnAnd we'll catch up on mutual friendsnYes we'll laugh with good cheer and not mention that we're nJust a means to each of our endsnAnd by midnight you'll be so convincednThat all of our time apart was some mistakenThat I'll sigh and I'll stand and I'll hold out my handnOnce more for your memory's sakennI'll hold you my love and never let gonI'll hold you my love and I'll never tirenI'll hold you my love by the throatnI'll hold you my love over the firenSo breathe with me, love; only love will work nownHold onto my love like it was stolennI'll burn with your love like I was BirkenaunI'll conquer your love like you were PolandnI'll act on my love like Pontius PilatenI'll give you my love like I was BrutusnI'll radiate love like Three Mile IslandnI'll prove you my love like I was Judas
