When routine bites hard and ambitions are low

and resentment rides high but emotions won't grow

And we're changing our ways, taking different roads

Then love, love will tear us apart again

Love, love will tear us apart again

Why is the bedroom so cold? You've turned away on your side

Is my timing that flawed? Our respect runs so dry

Yet there's still this appeal that we've kept through our lives

But love, love will tear us apart again

Love, love will tear us apart again

You cry out in your sleep, all my failings exposed

And there's taste in my mouth as desperation takes hold

Just that something so good just can't function no more

when love, love will tear us apart again

Love, love will tear us apart again

Love, love will tear us apart again

Love, love will tear us apart again
