Love Is A Terrible Thing

Love Is A Terrible Thing, an alternative love song.

Love is a stranger that lets itself in,
Love is the devil, love is a sin.
Love lifts you up and then casts you down,
Love makes you cry with the face of a clown.

Chorus
Love is a suitcase that never stays closed
Love is a picture, a nude in repose.
Love makes you fat, love makes you thin.
Love is a terrible, terrible thing.

Love makes you crazy, love turns you blind,
Love is a poem that doesn’t quite rhyme.
Love makes you happy then fills you with tears,
Love takes a moment or love can take years.

Chorus
Love is an angel, love is a whore.
Love is a limecake: you keep wanting more.
Love is a tonic mixed in with gin.
Love is a terrible, terrible thing.

Love is the demon when you turn out the light
Love is the future that fills you with fright
Love makes you crazy, love turns you blind
Love is the dealer who plays with your mind.

Chorus
Love can be heaven, love can be hell.
Loves an illusion, love is a spell
Love is the devil, love is a sin.
Love is a terrible terrible thing
