The Real Snow White Songtext
von The Cure

You′ve got what I want
You've got what I want
Yeah, you′ve got what I want
You've got what I want
You've got what I want
You′ve got what I want
You′ve got what I want, oh yeah

It's only for the night
And I will give it back tomorrow, I swear
She can barely breathe; "Don′t stare"
"I know the dress is tight"
"But it was all I had to wear"
Give me what I need; please share
You know it's only right
And I would never lie to you
I wouldn′t dare


I made a promise to myself
I wouldn't start with anyone else, but
You know how it is with these promises
Made in the heat of the moment
They′re made to be broken in two
Sometimes the only thing to do, oh no

It's all coming back
How I came to in a sticky three-day hole
Didn't see the sign; go slow
Too busy tuning static on the radio
She hissed it in a song
Don′t go, it always fades to black
But that′s why I love the trip - it's so inevitable

I made a promise to myself
I wouldn′t fall for anyone else, but
You know how it is with these promises
Made in the heat of the moment
They're made to be less than they seem

Whenever you′ve got what I need
And you've got what I need
Yeah, you′ve got what I need
You've got what I need, oh yeah


For service with a smile
I have to walk in on my hands and roll free
You say it's all the same
You′re not the real snow white
The real snow white is on my knee
I didn′t need to get - I did
It's simply minimum height
And getting all dressed up
In seven ways to please, yeah

I made a promise to myself
I wouldn′t stay with anyone else but
You know how it is with these promises
Made in the heat of the moment
They're made to be broken one day
If there′s no time to get away, uh, oh

She wasn't made to shine
She was really only ever made to glow
I left her in the dark - no show
Quiet sucking on a line
It was a tricky gun to load
And I didn′t get to fire, hi, ho
She's off to work for time
I should have finished out, with higher up than low

I made a promise to myself
I wouldn't stop with anyone else but
You know how it is with these promises
Made in the heat of the moment
They′re made before right becomes wrong

Whenever you′ve got what I want
Whenever you've got what I want
Whenever you′ve got what I want
Whenever you've got what I want
And you′ve got what I want
You've got what I want
You′ve got what I want

Oh yeah
It's only for the night, and I will give it back tomorrow
(I swear)
