Lykke Li - Sadness Is a Blessing

 

My wounded rhymes make silent cries tonight
My wounded rhymes make silent cries tonight
And i keep it like a burning
I'm longing from a distance

I ranted, i pleaded, i beg him not to go
For sorrow, the only lover i've ever known

Sadness is a blessing
Sadness is a pearl
Sadness is my boyfriend
Oh, sadness i'm your girl

These scars of mine make wounded rhymes tonight
I dream of times when you were mine so i
Can keep it like a haunting
Heart beating close to mine

Sadness is a blessing
Sadness is a pearl
Sadness is my boyfriend
Oh, sadness i'm your girl

I ranted, i pleaded, i beg him not to go
For sorrow, the only lover i've ever known
Every night i rant, i plead, i beg him not to go
Will sorrow be the only lover i can call my own?

Sadness is a blessing
Sadness is a pearl
Sadness is my boyfriend
Oh, sadness i'm your girl
Sadness is my boyfriend
Oh, sadness i'm your girl
Oh, sadness i'm your girl
