I found myself
At the point where we kissed first
On a rooftop
Overlooking the East London mosque

They say, they say, they say, they say
"You can´t go around breaking young girls´ hearts"
I say, I say, I say, I say
"Just a casual, easy thing"

And you looked so right
In that red dress

Oh, how I´d love
To be a rock for you
To be anything
You could rely on
So I´ll try, I´ll try, I´ll try, I´ll try
But I´ll get caught out
So we´ll try, we´ll try, we´ll try, we´ll try

But we forget the lines
Forget the lines

And you looked so wanton
In the back of the car
Like you could start
A hundred wars

See what trouble wicked thoughts cause
By the bedroom door, the kitchen floor
I tried, I tried, I tried
I tried, I tried, I tried
Oh, Marlena, I´m too young
To be the father to our son
I tried, I tried, I tried
I tried, I tried, I tried

Forgive me, Oscar
Forgive me, Oscar
Forgive me, Oscar
Forgive me, Oscar
Forgive me, Oscar
