LYRICFLUENTShame Lyrics by Robbie Williams Robbie Williams , Gary Barlow
Below, you will find the lyrics for Shame by Robbie Williams.
Verse 1
Well there's three versions of this story
Mine, yours and then the truth
And we can put it down to circumstance
Our childhood, then our youth
Chorus 1
Out of some sentimental gain
I wanted you to feel my pain
But it came back return to sender
I read your mind and tried to call
My tears could fill the Albert Hall
Is this the sound of sweet surrender?
What a shame we never listened
I told you through the television
And all that went away was the price we paid
People spend a lifetime this way
What a shame
Verse 2
So I got busy throwing
Everybody underneath the bus
And with your poster
30 foot at the back of Toys-R-Us
Chorus 2
I wrote a letter in my mind
But the words were so unkind
About a man I can't remember
I don't recall the reasons why
I must have meant them at the time
Is this the sound of sweet surrender?
What a shame we never listened
I told you through the television
And all that went away was the price we paid
People spend a lifetime this way
And that's how they stay
What a shame
Bridge
Words come easy
When they're true
Words come easy
When they're true
So I got busy throwing
Everybody underneath the bus
And with your poster
30 foot at the back of Toys-R-Us
Now we can put it down to circumstance
Our childhood then our youth
What a shame we never listened
I told you through the television
And all that went away was the price we paid
People spend a lifetime this way
And that's how they stay
People spend a lifetime this way
What a shame
What a shame
Such a shame, what a shame
