lyrics

I may not be pure at heart but I loved you,
I may not be pure at heart but I loved you,
I may not be pure at heart but I loved you.

Day by day I see myself
as the tramp you always said
I would end up being when we´d be through.
I roam aimlessly at night,
mix with every kind of trouble,
giving me a reputation.
Dens, backstreets and strangers´ rooms
are my favourite places.
I don´t get home until it´s dawn.

I may not be pure at heart,
I may not be pure at heart,
I may not be pure at heart but I loved you.

Boys in summertime clothes
surely make me lose my hiccups,
they give me dirty thoughts for days.
I crave constantly for danger,
intrigue seems to turn me on,
complex cases are my soft spot.
I grew up on a diet of dirty french novels,
my hero is Madame Merteuil.

You said that I´m almost vile
and this brought me to my knees
but your news have spread all over town boy,
I´m not blind nor deaf, you see.

I may not be pure at heart…but…are you?
Dream on!

We may not be pure at heart,
for sure we´re not pure at heart
but this doesn´t mean
we don´t deserve a happy ending.
You know, I fall apart everytime you walk by.
Could we accept ourselves as we are
and love like we used to
though we´re not pure,
not pure, we´re not pure at heart?

Evripidis and his Tragedies Barcelona, Spain

Evripidis and His Tragedies is Evripidis Sabatis. The "Tragedies" are the devastating, confessional, self-sarcastic, darkly humorous songs that draw on his classical piano training, queer sensibility and storytelling skills to examine and own up to the vicissitudes of life. Evripidis' pop inclinations take us for a bumpy, dancey ride across the fine line between tragedy and joie de vivre. ... more
