"Laying here in the dark
You're like an angel on my chest
Just another tramp of hearts
Crying tears of faithlessness"
It seems to me that the very same character had more reason to regret his lover's infidelity some years later in Philadephia.
"The night has fallen, I'm lying awake
I can feel myself fading away
So receive me brother with your faithless kiss
Or will we leave each other alone like this"
