Elvis Costello - Shamed Into Love lyrics

(written by elvis costello, submitted by craig ciccone) I fear, my dear We've forgotten the things strangers do If we could look back To the terrible thrill that we knew Am i imagining a world without you? Must we be shamed into love? What can i say? Will you pardon my stupid embrace? Sometimes i'm desperate While you're wiping the smile from your face Am i surrendering, or am i replaced? Must we be shamed into love? Shamed into love You're once a fool for having it Twice for letting it go Somewhere, my love, there's a feeling deep inside of me That i can't let go Oh, you'll never know But then, my darling I've forbidden myself to confess I've looked around now But i always return to your face In a world where everything I once cursed, i bless It must be you who shamed me into love Must we be shamed into love?
