Lyric

Once, I laughed when I heard you saying

That I'd be playing solitaire

Uneasy in my easy chair

It never entered my mind

Once you told me I was mistaken

That I'd awaken with the sun

And ordered orange juice for one

It never entered my mind

You have what I lack, myself

And now I even have to scratch my back myself

Once you warned me that if you scorned me

I'd sing a losers' prayer again

And wish that you were there again

To get into my, to get into my hair again

It never entered my mind

You have what I lack myself

And now I even have to scratch my back myself

Once, you warned me that if you scorned me

I'd sing a losers' prayer again

And wish that you were there again

To get into my hair again

It never entered

No, it never entered

It never entered my mind

- It's already the end -
