The Big Pink

A Brief History Of Love

This time I'll leave you as the one that you love

The taste of your lips and the true meaning of love

Your beautiful smile all bent out of shape

Is this the road to heaven that you wanted to take?

Come on baby don't you want to feel love?

Have I left you too long waiting for the feeling to come?

Another kind of lover holds my baby today

Crush the tissue to break the fall

Let's get lost and feel warm tonight

Hit by another and feeling it's right

Its all over tonight

As you leave me

It's up to you to lend me your heart, but you won't let go

And as you leave me

You're in my heart I feel true love and it won't let go

It's up to you to mend my heart, please don't let go

I've seen the lights of this city go out at night

Instant living rarely works out right

You never turned down what you wanted to be

It's a kind of magic that you can't help but feel

I dreamt we were sleeping and we floated away

And we shone like a star and we blinded who stared

We listen to the heavens at the silence above

Never ask the devil to help the one that you love

You said to me baby that you want to feel love

Babe we gave it our all but its never enough

It's all over tonight
