Charlotte Boyce Munson - You Make Love Ugly Lyrics

Lady: You did this to me, to us
Prince: You will respect me, as future King-
Lady: You'll never be King!
Look at you, a simpering milksop on the throne? Never!

Prince: I'm afraid our marriage is irretrievably broken down
Lady: Yes, I'm afraid so

Oh God
What can I do?
I tried so hard to play the part
So what will I do?
I loved you each day and in return you broke my heart

You make my love ugly
Drain all of my blood and never loved me
I married a fraud
'Cause the vows that you made
In St. Paul's Cathedral
Were not just to me
But God and the people
The people you rule
Your own crown and country
You made us all fools
You make love ugly

All those borrowed beds
In the homes of our friends
All the lies you had to weave
I gave up my life
Just to become your wife
It's so f***ing unfair I can't breathe

Prince: What have I done?
Lady: Nineteen years old and naive enough to feel lucky
Both: What of our sons?
Lady: You betrayed us and God knows you'll never think twice or feel sorry

You make love ugly
Prince: Whatever love means when you aren't born free
My life's not my own

Drums of my dreams
Both: Drowned out by duty
Prince: My dear confidant
Treated so cruelly
Lady: Treat me so cruelly
Prince: Fame is abuse
Both: My / your own crown and country
Deny me my love
Prince: So what can my love mean?

Both: In my dreams she's / your queen
What could have been?
If only I'd been allowed to write my own story
Prince: Done things differently

Both: Alone and degraded
Defamed in the dark
I guess now at least
Prince: She knows the truth

Lady: You make love ugly
Prince: Whatever love means

Lady: Perhaps it's only the lonely who know who we are
Only the lonely who know who we are
