Not for being poor or ugly, but for longing
I have the black shirt
Today my love is mourning
Today I have in my soul a sorrow
And it's because of your spell
Today I know that you don't love me anymore
And that's what hurts me most
That I have the black shirt
And a sorrow that hurts me
Prechorus 1
Sadly it seems that I was left alone
And it was purely completely your lie
What damn bad luck mine
That I found you that day
For drinking from the evil poison of your love
I was left dying and full of pain
I breathed from that bitter smoke of your goodbye
And since you left I only have
Chorus 1
I have the black shirt
Because black I have my soul
I lost my calm because of you
And I almost lose even my bed
I tell you sneakily
That I have the black shirt
And underneath I have the deceased
Verse 2
I have the black shirt
Your love doesn't interest me anymore
What yesterday tasted like glory
Today it tastes like pure
Wednesday afternoon and you don't arrive
Not even showing signs
And me with the black shirt
And your suitcases at the door
Prechorus 2
Sadly it seems that I was left alone
And it was purely completely your lie
What damn bad luck mine
That I found you that day
For drinking from the evil poison of your love
I was left dying and full of pain
I breathed from that bitter smoke of your goodbye
And since you left I only have
Chorus 2
I have the black shirt
Because black I have my soul
I lost my calm because of you
And I almost lose even my bed
I tell you sneakily
That I have the black shirt
And underneath I have the deceased
Chorus 3
I have the black shirt
Because black I have my soul
I lost my calm because of you
And I almost lose even my bed
I tell you sneakily
That I have the black shirt
And underneath I have the deceased
