You taught me how to love   And you taught me how to hide it   You taught me late at night   With the empty gates behind us      And now, you're in the garden in the rain   Your skin's so wet, it's like   You'll never be dry again   You'll never be young again      And you taught me how to kiss   While your husband had his way   With a younger fitter lover   On the golf course in a bunker      And, they say romance is dead.      (Break)      You taught me how to love   And you taught me how to like it   You taught me that the night is   THe only place to find it      And now, you've forgotten everything   Except the things that cause you pain   And you'll never be young again      (Break)      And the curtains of this house   Are too thin to keep it out   It will get in in the end   And it will get you in the end      And you know romance is dead      And the little despair   Will go a long long way   And the little despair   Will go a long long way   (And the little despair)   Will go a long long way   (Will go a Long long way)   Will go a long long way   (Will go a Long long way)   Will go a long long way   (And the little despair)   Will go a long long way   (And the long long way   Will go a long long way   (And the little despair)   Will go a long long way   (And the little despair)   Will go a long long way   (And the little despair)   Will go a long long way   (And the little despair)   Will go a long long way
