“Once upon a time…
When the cold wind that blows,
when the cold wind that blows in my heart,
it was a summer breeze and she would meet me in Chinatown,
for opium and tea
and she always brought me flowers
but I spared you those old ballads
All those songs I couldn’t play
But every giro day she’d dress me like a lady boy
And take me high out of the way
Don’t let the horse chase the new deal away, no
If we make love in the morning
I see your eyes look like two marbles in your head”

— Pete Doherty

Fillin' up my mind and emptyin' my heart.

And I wonder if she knows…what she's doin' now.”

Slowly, there's only you and I.
And all I wanna do is watch the wind blow by.”

“You say it's all in my head
And the things I think just don't make sense
So where you been then? Don't go all coy
Don't turn it round on me like it's my fault
See I can see that look in your eyes
The one that shoots me each and every time.
You grace me with your cold shoulder
Whenever you look at me I wish I was her.
You shower me with words made of knives
Whenever you look at me I wish I was her.”

She's not sure if you're a boy or a girl.
Hey babe, your hair's alright.

We like dancing and we look divine.
You love bands when they're playing hard.
You want more and you want it fast.”
