Triangle
Miguel Bosé Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

She loves me oh, she needs me
Said she never let me go
Said she'd always be my slave
Said if she had a chain
She'll chain herself to me
And what would she do
Ooh if she found out about you?
While I'm stuck in the middle
Don't know which way to turn i'm caught in a

Triangle, try anything
Try to climb the walls to see her
Triumphant tragedy i love you, she loves me
Oh my darling, triumphant tragedy

She dares me oh no no she scares me
And I feel my hands are tied
She's threatened suicide
Said she'd jump into a river
And go down with her pride i'm drowning in a

Triangle, try anything
Try to climb the walls to see her
Triumphant tragedy i love you, she loves me
Oh my darling, triumphant tragedy





Ooh triumphant tragedy
