Fait Accompli

Fait accompli No road ahead Nowhere to go now that the last words have been said No hope in hell That's the sum of it all You hand me your keys with unconcerned ease And God, I feel small Books and the like There'll be a van It's not important, you will send it when you can I still can't believe You could do this to me The steel in your voice No room left for choice Just fait accompli My whole world in ruins Shattered and cursed How can I rise from the rubble The bubble I lived in has burst The air rushing through A message from you Clear as can be It's fait accompli Should I have seen Should I have heard Maybe a nuance of curious choice words There were no signs At least none I could see No warning from you Then out of the blue a fait accompli One heartbeat from panic Aching so bad Echo some heels down the stairs Dying out, and I think I'll go bad One minute we're up Next minute you're gone There's no more we Fait accompli My whole world in ruins Shattered and cursed Now I must rise from the rubble The bubble I lived in has burst The air rushing through A message from you Out of the blue And it's clear as can be There's no more we It's fait accompli Fait accompli Fait accompli --- Fait Accompli - Benny Andersson, Benny Andersson's Orkester and Benny Andersson Band
