Broken End Of Love

Line of sight, speed of sound

Feel of flesh the long way down

Flash of light you look around it's over

You're OK, but I'm a mess

It's the way it goes I guess

I think I thought we would last forever

What am I gonna do about this

It ain't no metamorphosis

It's the cold and bitter broken end of love

Discontent with love's refrain

Is something that I can't explain

I see now I should have seen it coming

It hit us like a hurricane

And ripped the coast with fiery rain

And I kept holding on in vain to nothing

What am I gonna do about this

It ain't no metamorphosis

It's the cold and bitter broken end of love

And I wonder if you felt this way

From our first kiss to that last day

And I was but a fool of trust and pleasure

And I'll keep your love where love won't die

So said the spider to the fly

But dead love is the only love you treasure

What am I gonna do about this

It ain't no metamorphosis

It's the cold and bitter broken end of love

I'm lucky just to be alive

It serves me right that I survive

And live to tell the lesson that you taught me

So you know for what it's worth

There ain't enough love on earth

To take away all the shame you brought me

What am I gonna do about this

It ain't no metamorphosis

It's the cold and bitter broken end of love (Hey now)

What am I gonna do about this

It ain't no metamorphosis

It's the cold and bitter broken end of love

End of love
