Lyrics for Fair
Well, he shouted out his last word and he stumbled through the yard And she shattered her last china plate and spun off in the car When he lunged onto the hood, she stopped to tell him she'd been wrong He was thrown head-over-heels into the traffic coming on But then, all is fair, all is fair in love Did you get my other letters? Sometimes, I think I oughta call Cause you know, I often wonder if you open them at all Every couple nights or so, you know you pop into my dreams I just can't get rid of you like you got rid of me Oh, but I send my best 'cause God knows you've seen my worst Yeah well, all is fair, all is fair in love All this breathing in, never breathing out All this breathing in, never breathing out All this breathing in, never breathing out Well, I guess she made her way through the mob too late to hear him say That he'd gotten all he'd wanted A crowd to watch him bear the pain he'd been keeping in (So what?) So what? All is fair, all is fair in love Yeah well, all is fair, all is fair in love Am I right? Am I right? Not only am I right I'm lonely and I'm right Yeah!
