A canção do fim de uma relação que nunca existiu - obviamente, muito apropriada para o teenager que eu era na altura em que ouvi pela primeira vez, aos 17 anos. Não é preciso ser uma bicha maníaco-depressiva para sentir a força desta canção que me atormentou uns meses valentes... A melhor canção dos The Smiths, "I know it's over"!
I know it's over
And it never really began
But in my heart it was so real
And you even spoke to me, and said :
"If you're so funny
Then why are you on your own tonight ?
And if you're so clever
Then why are you on your own tonight ?
If you're so very entertaining
Then why are you on your own tonight ?
If you're so very good-looking
Why do you sleep alone tonight ?
I know ...
'Cause tonight is just like any other night
That's why you're on your own tonight
With your triumphs and your charms
While they're in each other's arms..."
