Lyrics
[Verse 1]
One more sad tomorrow
And I'm not very good at hiding my sorrow
It's not the same without you
So alone and so afraid
I thought we had it made
[Verse 2]
What about us, what about the way?
We were so in love when we were together
I thought you'd never leave
Now I know this time you're gone forever
[Verse 3]
Only love can break your heart
Fill you with desire and tear you all apart
Only love can make you cry
Only love knows why
[Verse 4]
One more night without you
I'm just trying to pretend that you're coming back again
I know I never meant to doubt you, oh no
We were young and we were free
Now I can't believe this has happened to me
[Verse 5]
What about us, what about the way?
We were so in love when we were together
Only love can break your heart
Fill you with desire and tear you all apart
Only love can make you cry
And only love knows why
[Verse 6]
Gonna be a long, hard road without you
And there's one thing you should know
Tell me, who will I turn to when I get in trouble?
I really don't want you to go, no
[Verse 7]
Tell me, who will I turn to when I get in trouble?
Baby, please don't leave me
Can't you see you must believe me?
[Verse 8]
Only love can break your heart
Fill you with desire then tear you down
The minute that you fall apart
Only love can make you cry
Only love knows why, oh, no
[Verse 9]
Gonna build you up, gonna tear you down
Only love knows why
Oh, no
[Verse 10]
Only love knows why
Only love will make you cry
