Bryan Adams parody lyrics
One Blighted Love Affair
For use with One Night Love Affair
(What does the markup on these lyrics mean?)
You’re the violent type
And you burned my eye
But I never thought that I’d speak to you
What am I to know
Save you had feelings go
And that you got cursed before your life was through
One blighted love affair
Trying to make love she didn’t share
Ye were both reaching out for something
One blighted love affair
Finding-she was not there
Oh - and now ye’re left with nothing
Had the mourning break
Ye went your separate ways
If your type was made for love it ain’t for keeps
But you lost control
As you watched her go
All my senses say you (were) in this much too deep
When you hit-the beach
One blighted love affair
Trying to make love she didn’t share
Ye were both reaching out for something
One blighted love affair
Finding-she was not there
Oh - and now ye’re left with nothing
One blighted love affair
Trying to make love she didn’t share
Ye were both reaching out for something
One blighted love affair
Sometimes life ain’t fair
Oh - and now ye’re left with nothing
Behind the scenes
I had been developing the idea for the parody for some time, and eventually decided on its ultimate form in November 2023.
