Of all the people in this world why you and I
With lovers here and everywhere who don't care enough to try
Why couldn't all the hurt we're feeling now have passed us by
Couldn't love have picked a better place to die

And of all the hearts in all the world why yours and mine
With so many places love could die it's so much easier to find
But it's in our hearts it's in our bed and it's even in your eyes
Couldn't love have picked a better place to die

Somewhere out there there's lovers who want to be free
Why couldn't love have died with them instead of here with you and me
Oh but it's dead and gone and all these tears won't bring it back to life
Couldn't love have picked a better place to die

Oh but it's dead and gone and all these tears won't bring it back to life
Couldn't love have picked a better place to die
