sonnerie téléphone portable pour Swallow tattoo

Give me a good film noir and a bottle of gin
I'll be happy just to stay inside,
I didn't want to get too involved
But i like how hard you tried.

To my horror,
A former lover told me you've always had a swallow tattoo
Now you tell me it's a sign of devotion
But devotion to who?

Don't think i'm a martyr to the cause
She's got her reasons putting cats amongst the pigeons
But i'd rather just stay indoors.

An antique emblem set in ink
It didn't mean a thing to you,
And i've been 'round by proxy
Goodbye, happiness, i hardly knew ya.

To my horror,
A former lover told me you've always had a swallow tattoo
Now you tell me it's a sign of devotion
But devotion to who?

You fill me, you fill me
You fill me with inertia
You fill me with inertia
I still want, i still want to jump
I want to jump your bones.

Don't tell her, tell her anything
Because i'm bound to see her later today
And if she can't keep a straight face
Then i'll know.
To my horror,
A former lover told me you've always had a swallow tattoo
Now you tell me it's a sign of devotion
But devotion to who?

I'd rather just stay indoors
