Why must the good die young while all the rich men age?
Is it a wicked love affair or just a twisted game?
I could have held your hand, but now it's getting late
So let's run to the fields of Versailles
Another hero's gone, another fire brigade
I would've been a king to you and let 'em all eat cake
We could've ruled the land, but that would never do
So let's run to the fields of Versailles
Virtues, kiss goodbye
Virtues aren't for us tonight
Virtues, hold me tight
Virtues, we can leave 'em all behind
Virtues aren't for us tonight
Another hero's gone, another fire brigade
I could've been the queen to you and let 'em all eat cake
We could've ruled the land, but that would never do
So let's run to the fields of Versailles
Virtues, kiss goodbye
Virtues aren't for us tonight
Virtues, hold me tight
Virtues, we can leave 'em all behind
Virtues aren't for us tonight
(Virtues aren't for us tonight)
