Dust – English Lyrics
Lyrics & Translation
[English]
Sa-sa-sa-save meI don't need you to confess
Got some feelings in your chest (chest)
Always the same thing (same thing)
At first, you just play it nice
Then you tell me I'm your type (type)
It's so predictable, nothing original
You love me, bla, bla, bla, bla, bla
Here we go, once again
Swore that we were only friends
But now you love me to the end
No, no, no (no, no, no)
Took a shot in the dark
I didn't mean to break your heart
But I told you from the start
"No, no, no"
Another heart bites the dust
Another heart bites the dust
Ca-ca-can't change me
Yeah, I've heard it all before
So leave it all at the door
So you can hate me
If it gets you movin' on
I ain't gonna play along, no (no)
It's so predictable, nothing original
You love me, bla, bla, bla, bla, bla (bla, bla, bla, bla, bla)
Here we go, once again
Swore that we were only friends
But now you love me to the end
No, no, no
Took a shot in the dark
I didn't mean to break your heart
But I told you from the start
"No, no, no"
Another heart bites the dust
Another heart bites the dust
Don't act like this is my fault
You're facing a downfall without my love
You can keep playing your part
While another heart will bite the dust
Here we go, once again
Swore that we were only friends
But now you love me to the end
No, no, no
Took a shot in the dark
I didn't mean to break your heart
But I told you from the start
"No, no, no"
Another heart bites the dust
Another heart bites the dust
Another heart bites the dust
