Young Forever

This is how the story goes
We found love in Tokyo
It went down with cherry blossoms in her hair
At my hotel we went to sleep
I woke up at 3:03
She slept sound
Like murdered roses on the stairs
I choked her down
I know it's bad
I can't watch a pretty soul grow old
They put her in a body bag
The English translator talked fast
He asked me "where were you when her blood went cold?"
I lit a camel cigarette
Ashes fell upon the bed
I looked at him and then I took a final hit
I choked her down
I know it's bad
I can't watch a pretty soul grow old
She's young forever
I choked her down
I know it's bad
Even I can't watch a tender soul grow old
Now I sit inside a prison cell
The U.S. press writes "burn in hell."
But I couldn't be happier myself
I choked her down
I know it's bad
I can't watch a pretty soul grow old
She's young forever
I choked her down
I know it's bad
I can't watch a pretty soul grow old
She's young forever
I choked her down
I know it's bad
Even I can't watch a tender soul grow old
She's young forever
