You promised me the world
and gave it to another girl
another girl
her Chinese whispers in my ears
and then she made me disappear
that sorceress
you now caress
ooh

Now there's no evidence in sight
to show that we thought we once
might have made a union of contentment
and I still wake up through the night
in sweat and tears for you despite
you only left me with
contempt contempt contempt

I framed your face in glass and steel
and through the broken glass
you're real you're so surreal
she picked the pieces from the floor
and pulled me through the open door
that open door
ooh ooh

Now there's no evidence in sight
to show that we thought we once
might have made a union of contentment
and I still wake up through the night
in sweat and tears for you despite
you only left me with
contempt contempt contempt

You gave me my bed
she sleeps in my sheets
she washes her hair
my towel drys her feet
she sits on my chair
she eats what you eat
she's driving my car
in my driver's seat.

I've got nothing but contempt.
