He saw no tears in her eyes
  Say you wouldn't kid about it
  She's telling all of those lies
  She swore she'd never told before
  But I doubt it
  So he bit his tongue
  And tried hard to capture his breath
  When she said I waited all my life
  For just a little death
  
  Say you wouldn't kid about it
  Say you wouldn't kid about it
  Say you wouldn't kid about it
  
  Sometimes he takes himself so seriously
  She makes her movements mysteriously
  Slow fast or furiously
  It's a big responsibility
  With a face full of mixed ability
  Big dreams of elegance
  Singing the leaving of Liverpool
  And turning into Americans
  
  Say you wouldn't kid about it
  So what if this is a man's world
  I want to be a kid again about it
  Give me back my sadness
  I couldn't hide it even if I tried girl
  
  We fight so frail
  Making love tooth and nail
  You gave me the kiss of my life
  I might even live to tell the tale
