The Song With No Name Lyrics

Shane MacGowan & The Popes The Song With No Name

Long years ago I fell in love
With a lady proud and fair
So passionate were she and I
We made fire in the air
I loved her more than life itself
She loved me just the same
And it broke my heart
To think we'd part If she ended the affair
But I was brutal, I was ignorant,
 I was cruel, I was brash
I never gave a damn about
the beauty that I'd smashed
No sadist I, I found delight in
making my love cry
Now I'd pray for a single kiss from her
To be lashed and crucified
And now I fear this lady fair
Can never more be mine
Long gone are nights in my lonely bed
All suffering and crying
And though I fear that through this life
She'll call me only friend
'Til I'm dead and buried in my grave
My love will never end
