Love Lies Bleeding Songtext
von Basia

Poor you
What will you do
When there′s no other like this one?
Though it's so cruel, acutely painful
Excruciating, greatly ungrateful

It′s highly suspicious
What is your secret?
There must be a motive
A hidden agenda
No one's that stupid and altruistic
To love so deeply
And so completely
Oh no, you're crazy
You cannot help it
′Cause without this torture, life has no meaning
There is no reason to go on


Waste away or die of disappointment
Those you love the most inflict the deepest cut
Waste away or die of disappointment
One you love the most will surely break your heart

Love lies bleeding
But your heart′s still breathing
And just one last time, you're noble and forgiving
So your love lies bleeding
But your heart′s still breathing
And it tears you apart

Poor me
Now I agree
There is no other like this one
Though it's so cruel, acutely painful
Excruciating, greatly ungrateful
It′s nothing suspicious
There is no secret
I don't have a motive
Hidden agenda


I must be stupid and altruistic
To love so deeply and so completely
Oh yes, I′m crazy
I cannot help it
'Cause without this torture life has no meaning
There is no reason to go on

Love lies bleeding
Heart's still breathing
One last time you′re forgiving
Love lies bleeding
But your heart′s still breathing
And it tears you apart

Waste away or die of disappointment
Those you love the most inflict the deepest cut
Waste away or die of disappointment
One you love the most will surely break your heart

Again your love lies bleeding
But your heart's still breathing
And just one last time, you′re noble and forgiving
Love lies bleeding
But your heart's still breathing
And it tears you apart

Oh, poor you and me
