Unrequited Love

Lykke Li · Wounded Rhymes [2011]

Once again it's happening.

Oh my love is unrequited.



Twice the pain the suffering

Oh my love is unrequited

Oh my love is unrequited



That must mean I'll live again

And get back what I gave to men

Get back what I lost to them



Oh the shame this crying game

Oh my love I've been denied it

Oh my love is unrequited



And I know it so well. I could play it by ear.

Looking back at myself. While the violin plays

And blue is my tune. Another stitch to my wound

Another inch in this dwell. I know it all too well

When once again it's happening:



Oh our love has been divided.

Oh my love is unrequited

Oh my love is unrequited

Oh my love is unrequited

Oh my love is unrequited
