To you my heart cries out perfidia
For I found you, the love of my life,
In somebody else`s arms
Your eyes are echoing perfidia
Forgetful of our promise of love,
You`re sharing another`s charms
With a sad lament, my dreams
Have faded like a broken melody;
While the gods of love look down and laugh
At what romantic fools we mortals be
And yet I know my love was not for you
And so I`ll take it back with a sigh,
Perfidious one, good-bye.
[instrumental interlude]
With a sad lament, my dreams
Have faded like a broken melody;
While the gods of love look down and laugh
At what romantic fools we mortals be
And yet I know my love was not for you
And so I`ll take it back with a sigh,
Perfidious one, good-bye.
Good-bye!
