lyrics

Let’s Not Ruin This Affair
Lyrics and music by Alexa Weber Morales © 2007

Pourquoi gâcher notre affaire?
Animée d’une puissance illimitée
L'essentiel, vois-tu, c'est le mystère?
Je me fous du ménage domestique
Fais vibrer mes secrets acoustiques

Let’s not ruin this affair
Charged with unlimited potential
Can’t you see the mystery is essential?
Screw domestic devastation
Show me eccentric motivation

Please don’t say how great we’d be
Let’s rewind to our pleasant repartee
If you want me in your arms take me dancing, you fool!
Let’s make music together
No morning guilt as a tether

Let’s not ruin this affair
Go ahead and shop for another bed
Don’t hold my hand, I’m not hoping to be led
I’m a woman in her prime
Play my piano, it’s divine

Let’s not ruin this affair
Sublimation suits you so well
Give me your best shot, your truest laugh
Give me your finest thought, your choicest word
When all your flings have piled up in the past
When you see how far I’ve come undeterred
You’ll remember me
You’ll remember me
…and how I made us last

Pourquoi gâcher notre affaire?
Ne prends pas ma main, a quoi ça sert?

Je suis maîtresse de mon destin
Sans les remords amers du matin

Pour le meilleur et pour le pire
Un trait d'esprit, un éclat de rire

Il était une fois, une fois qui n'était pas
