Wall Of Voodoo - This Business of Love lyrics

This business of love will never do Not for me and not for you This business of love will never die Not for you and not for I This business of love will never do On a midtown bus at 5pm He and she begin to fight again Knees buckle under and heads are tossed As the bus hit brakes and the words heat up About money time and remembered slights Your career takes away my nights Packed so close and packed so tight Her hissing words like a fuse ignites Him to implode man overboard Undermined he overloads Over all he does and all she owes Sin for sin its blow for blow As he wages his holy war She just don't want to hear no more Pushes to the rear she pulls the cord And he chases her to the door Got off the bus And then she said This business of love will never do Not for me and not for you This business of love will never die Not for you and not for I This business of love will never do Not for me and not for you I've been adding it up To see where it went The love we shared and the time we spent Now I gotta take stock I gotta get bent This two bit heart is worth about ten cents I've been adding it up To see where it went The love we shared and the time we spent Now I gotta get straight I gotta get bent This two bit heart is worth about ten cents Even though they were together Even though they were the pair And even though you never saw'em apart And you saw them everywhere There was a whole dance floor between them There was an ocean in their bed From the punches pulled And the faces smacked Branded by the words they said But they were drawn by the thorns The dew and the lace As they ran their hands And wet their face In their garden's In a secret place In paradise at Eden's gates But even that couldn't save them From all that came before Two years and nights A thousand fights They were far beyond a cure They got out of bed And then he said This business of love will never do Not for me and not for you This business of love will never die Not for you and not for I This business of love will never do Not for me and not for you I've been adding it up To see where it went The love we shared and the time we spent Now I gotta get straight I gotta get bent This two bit heart is worth about
