The Letter - Lyrics by Faithfull Marianne


Lyrics
One grows weary of everything, my angel. It is the law of nature,it is not my fault.
If for example I had as much love as you have virtue, and that issurely saying a lot, is it not astonishing that we should end at thesame time asthe other ? It is not my fault.
From this, it follows that for some time I have been deceivingyou. But then, your pitiless affection forced me as it were to do so. Itis not myfault.
Today, a woman I love madly insists that I sacrifice you to her.
It is not my fault.I realise that this is a fine opportunity for crying out onperjury, but if nature's only given men assurance, or if she gave womenobstinacy, it isnot my fault.
Take my advice: choose another lover, as I have chosen anothermistress. This is good advice. Very good. If you think it bad, it is notmy fault.
Farewell, my angel, I took you with pleasure, I abandon youwithout regret. Perhaps I will come back, to you. So goes the world, itis not myfault.
