Monamour

                        Monamour, I can't trust you anymore
You can be sure I'll always cherish and adore
Can't help but love you while i stifle thinking of you
Monamour, I can't trust you anymore

Every minute without my little one is ash
All our dreams torn and sunderred into trash
I was willing to lay it down, but you shut off the sound
Of my aching, no arbitration, no last chance

Monamour, I can't trust you anymore
You can be sure I'll always cherish and adore
Can't help but love you while i stifle thinking of you
Monamour, I can't trust you anymore

Court battles like vile mustard gas
The smell of slaughter still lingers from the past
So many years, how could it happen, what could i do?
To prevent my Dunkirk, and our Waterloo

Monamour, I can't trust you anymore
You can be sure I'll always cherish and adore
Can't help but love you while i stifle thinking of you
Monamour, I'll never trust you anymore
Monamour, I'll never trust you anymore

Commentary:
Well.....big surprise, Monamour really means Mona, mon amour. The atomic ex-wife. If you ever see this woman coming towards you on the street, immediately run the other way and make sure you have not been exposed to radiation poisoning. And please report her to the nearest Environmental Health Agency and Local Air Pollution Control District. This song is completely obvious, and doesnt need any explanation, does it? Peter Cross believes this may be the best song he ever wrote, in terms of achieving a "classic", which is every songwriters dream. Peter wants the song to be re-recorded in French, and believes that any singer, male or female, could do their version of this song and it would sound good. A classic song has the ability to do that. Many thanks to Philip for his brilliant guitar solo, to Eric for being Eric, and to Deano, withough whom none of this would have worked. You guys made it possible for Peter Cross to achieve half his dream. Milli grazi. May you all achieve your dreams in this lifetime.
