Too Much Love Will Kill You
I'm just the pieces of the person I used to be
Too many bitter tears are raining down on me
I'm far away from home And I've been facing this alone For much too long Oh, I feel like no one ever told the truth to me About growing up and what a struggle it would be In my tangled state of mind
I've been looking back to find Where I went wrong
Too much love will kill you If you can't make up your mind Torn between the lover And the love you leave behind You're headed for disaster
Cause you never read the signs
Too much love will kill you every time
I'm just the shadow of the person I used to be
And it seems like there's no way out of this for me
I used to bring you sunshine
Now all I ever do is bring you down how would it be if you were standing in my shoes Can't you see that it's impossible to choose No there's no making sense of it Every way I go I'm bound to lose yes Too much love will kill you Just as sure as none at all It'll drain the power that's in you Make you plead and scream and crawl
And the pain will make you crazy You're the victim of your crime Too much love will kill you every time you
It'll make your life a lie And you won't understand why You'd give your life, you'd sell your soul
But here it comes again Too much love will kill you In the end
