Chinese Whispers

Black night, no light
I've had all I can take
Our old snapshots
Make my lonely heart ache
It doesn't take a genius to know
You're never coming back

Chinese whispers
It makes no sense to me
All this talk talk
What's the fuss? I can't see
It doesn't take a genius to know
You're gone permanently

You glide in the room, dim all the lights
Lie back in my chair, you look up in my eyes

Perfect murder
You put a hole in my heart
Too late, no hope
It's falling apart

This whole thing, it's so bizarre
Maybe it's all a dream
Let's rewrite the script again
Cut to another scene

Chinese whispers
It makes no sense to me
All this talk talk
What's the fuss? I can't see
It doesn't take a genius to know
You're gone permanently

You glide in the room, dim all the lights
Lie back in my chair, you look up in my eyes

What's on your mind, you can't conceal
Your eyes take aim, your lips shoot cold steel

Perfect murder
You put a hole in my heart
Too late, no hope
It's falling apart

Chinese whispers
Chinese whispers
