And Then You Kissed Me II

by The Cardigans

on Super Extra Gravity (Remastered) (2005), MP3 Collection (2005)

Slow dancing tight,
My barren heart and I.
Your name used to taste so sweet
Then you beat the love right out of me.
It's a mystery how people behave!
How we long for a life as a slave
When he kissed me I gladly gave in
To a fight nobody could win

Man, he left me blue
And if I could I would do it too
I tell you now like I told you before
Love is a powerful force
And it's a mystery how people behave!
How we long for a life as a slave
And tumble into any open arms
That will only ever do you harm

Oh, you, you, it's always you
The best kisser that I ever knew
True love is cruel love
Not much to be proud of
Nerve-wrecking, acrobatic backwards bend
All for a happy end

It's a mystery how people behave!
How we worry ourselves to the grave
When he kissed me I lost everything
Then I got up and did it again

Oh you, you, it's always you,
The hardest hitter that I ever knew
True love is cruel love
Not much to be proud of

Ass-kissing, mercy-missing, faithless friend
All for a happy end
