Your love alone Is not enough, not enough, not enough When times get tough Oh, they get tough, they get tough, they get tough Trade all your heroes in for ghosts In for ghosts, in for ghosts They're always the ones that love you most Love you most, love you most Your love alone Is not enough, not enough, not enough It's what you felt It's what you said, what you said, what you said You said the sky would fall on you Fall on you, fall on you Through all the pain your eyes stayed blue They stayed blue, baby blue But your love alone won't save the world You knew the secret of the universe Despite it all you made it worse It left you lonely It left you cursed You stole the sun Straight from my heart, from my heart, from my heart With no excuses Just fell apart, fell apart, fell apart No you won't make a mess of me Mess of me, mess of me For you're as blind as a man can be Man can be, man can be I could have seen for miles and miles I could have made you feel alive I could have placed us in exile (I could have written all your lines) I could have shown you (I could have shown you) How to cry Your love alone Is not enough Your love alone Is not enough I could have shown you Shown you how to cry Your love alone Is not enough Your love alone
