This Is a Rebel Song Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I love you my hard Englishman
Your rage is like a fist in my womb
Can't you forgive what you think I've done?
And love me, I'm your woman
And I desire you my, hard Englishman
And there is no more natural thing
So why should I not get loving?
Don't be cold, Englishman
[Chorus]
How come you've never said you love me
In all the time you've known me?
How come you never say you're sorry
And I do?
[Verse 2]
Ah, please talk to me Englishman
What good will shutting me out get done?
Meanwhile crazies are killing our sons
Oh listen, Englishman
I've honoured you, hard Englishman
Now I am calling your heart to my own
Oh, let glorious love be done
Be truthful, Englishman
[Chorus]
How come you've never said you love me
In all the time you've known me?
How come you never say you're sorry
And I do?
I do
