Benny Andersson Band - Fait Accompli Lyrics

(English version)

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
