Balthazar - Intro

I don't know what this is all about
But I remember when we first met
and children gathered around our bed
with torches and shaking their fist,
for everyone was pissed,
for us matching up like this.

Walking through these same old streets.
If you screw your heart like that,
then I can help you for a start
and leave for a change of scenery.
Just tell me how long

Now I know what this was all about.
'Cause I've heard about the smart people coming
and they're moving fast
and they all talk about your looks
and the lovers that you passed
and their last breath they drew
when you walked out on them, you see.
If I consider it to stay
then you will do it anyway
and leave for a change of scenery.
Just tell me how long
