Love's Duet Songtext
von Stephen Duffy

You used to be so nice and free
Now you hardly look at me
You sweep the leaves off the road
And count the snowflakes when it snows

Let′s cut away the undergrowth
Of a love that hurt us both
You stroke the cat when it purrs
But go to sleep without a word

Let's work this out tonight
Let′s sort out every silly fight
And I'll whistle half of love's duet
′Cause half of love is all you get
When you don′t play your part
When you broke my heart


The wind howls through the corridors
Of a heart that still adores
Life with you when it's so good
Is a lesson learnt and understood
Love can make you feel a fool
Love′s unkind and lovers are cruel
You make me wish I were dead
But I go and feed the cat instead

Let's sort this out tonight
Let′s sort out every silly fight
And I'll whistle half of love′s duet
'Cause half of love is all you get
When you don't play your part
When you broke my heart

I can′t cope with being unhappy
When I know what makes me happy
And I love loving you
But I can′t cope with what makes me do

Whistle half of love's duet
′Cause half of love is all you get
When you don't play your part
When you broke my heart
