Generation Lost Love Songtext
von Vincent Ryder

Don′t give, dont give it away
Don't give, dont give it away
Don′t give, dont give it away
Don't give, dont give it away
Don't give, dont give it away
Don′t give, dont give it away
Don′t give, dont give it away
Don't give, dont give it away

You made me weak for a week
And many weeks after
Your absence haunts me
And I can′t get myself together

Thinking of how
We cared for each other
And in my loneliness
I can't help but wonder


How our caring would evolve
If you had stayed a bit longer
If it′d fade away
Or just grow even stronger

Well you didn't fade
You made a hasty departure
As you turned loveless
Your embrace got colder

I felt the distance creeping over my shoulder
But chose to ignore it hoping it wouldn′t linger
But well it did it got bigger
As you grew sicker

I showed you what I wanted to show you
I saw what you wanted me to see
But was my image of you even you
Or someone else entirely

You're young I'm younger
You′re passionate like myself and I saw your anger
I recognized it and made you my mirror
That reflects the idea that things could be better


A beacon of hope in a world growing darker
A comforting thought as existence gets harder
But the light grew weaker as you grew sharper
The reflection got warped like when rain meets the river

And your rain weren′t soft
Your rain was like thunder
A sudden change and i couldn't
Recognize you no longer

I showed you what I wanted to show you
I saw what you wanted me to
How could any girl compete with the idea of you

Distance I feel it
In empty midnight stares
Yeah distance I feel it
Growing everywhere

Fear of feeling
Fear of the real thing
Fear of commitment
Thinking love is engagements

Fear of sorrow
Fear of pain
Fear of future
Living in vain

Fear of feeling
Fear of the real thing
Fear of commitment
Thinking love is engagements

Fear of sorrow
Fear of pain
Fear of future
Living in vain

Are we
Are we a generation
A generation
Lost love

Are we
Are we a generation
A generation
Lost love
