I'm just the pieces of the man I used to be
Too many bitter tears are raining down on me
I'm far away from home

And I've been facing this alone

For much too long

I feel like no-one ever told the truth to me
About growing up and what a struggle it would be
In my tangled state of mind

I've been looking back to find
Where I went wrong


Too much love will kill you
If you can't make up your mind
Torn between the lover

And the love you leave behind
You're headed for disaster
'Cos you never read the signs


Too much love will kill you
Every time

I'm just the shadow of the man I used to be
And it seems like there's no way out of this for me
I used to bring you sunshine

Now all I ever do is bring you down
How would it be if you were standing in my shoes
Can't you see that it's impossible to choose

No there's no making sense of it
Every way I go I'm bound to lose


Too much love will kill you
Just as sure as none at all
It'll drain the power that's in you

Make you plead and scream and crawl
And the pain will make you crazy
You're the victim of your crime


Too much love will kill you
Every time

Too much love will kill you
It'll make your life a lie
Yes, too much love will kill you

And you won't understand why
You'd give your life, you'd sell your soul
But here it comes again

Too much love will kill you
In the end...
In the end
