{Verse}
Love is not a myth, it's more of a tall-tale
That started with a feeling several million years ago
It laid dormant for a while
Then it festered and infected
And it grew to something out of our control
Now it lurks in dark alleys
And preys on the helpless
And hopeless romantics
With unsuspecting minds -
Who can't comprehend
That the human heart's purpose
Is for pumping blood only
Not for cupid's dirty kind
{Chorus}
'Cause sometimes love is pain
Yea, most the time it is
It's like acid in the rain
In your desert oasis
And sometimes lovе can kill
Well, most the time it doеs
It can take your life at will
It will take it in cold blood
So can we get over it?
It could take billions of years to forget. (Yeah)
{Instrumental Interlude}
{Chorus}
'Cause sometimes love is pain
Yea, most the time it is
It's like acid in the rain
In your desert oasis
And sometimes love can kill
Well, most the time it does
It can take your life at will
It will take it in cold blood
So can we get over it?
It could take billions of years to forget
