I see the winter in her eyes

As I turn to go

See the pain on her face

A frozen rose



With the toss of her hair

And the bite of her lip

She'll ask me so shy

"Anything left to say?"



And I say

"No, no baby, not this time

Again-

This time it's over

You've got to learn"



Chorus:

Now, darlin' love is cruel

Darlin' love is blind

Love is pain

So cry

Shed a tear today

Shed a tear my baby

Love is pain



I see our love out of reach

Arms intwined with lies

What shattered the night

Still haunts me in the rain



Now you're lost child, lost

Like a ship on the storm

Your distant eyes

Are shadows of others I've known



Bridge & Chorus

I Love you

Love is pain
