Lyrics

We Blame Love

It couldn't be clearer

I'll apologise right now

In spectacular language

I think you'll understand somehow

If I need to reach you

We've got to walk a path where love's forgotten

(Love) Diamond skin and clear blue eyes that never see

(Love) Every past needs broken time

Remind me how it used to be

(We blame Love) Heart is beating, mind is thinking

Body's moving

(We blame Love) Don't say another thing

It's dangerous it's deadly just like...

The secret is out

Beyond belief eternally

Naked and recognised

You see I'm just a boy who can't say...

(Love) Is the purest energy

In my philosophy

(Love) Every past needs broken time

Remind me how it used to be

(We blame Love) Fascination, strange attraction

Chain reaction

(We blame Love) For we are wild for truth

It's dangerous it's deadly just like...

It's just a clever trick

I know, bewitching me

But seeing you clouds my eyes

And if it rains then let it rain on me

(Love) Diamond skin and clear blue eyes that never see

(Love) Every past needs broken time

Remind me how it used to be

(We blame Love) Heart is beating, mind is thinking

Body's moving

(We blame Love) I haven't seen your face today

It's dangerous it's deadly just like...

(We blame Love) Fascination, strange attraction

Chain reaction

(We blame Love) For we are wild for truth

It's dangerous it's deadly just like...

Love

The saving of your life

A million times a second

The father of invention

Remind me how it used to be

(We blame Love) Fascination, strange attraction

Chain reaction

(We blame Love) Oh let it rain on me

It's dangerous it's deadly just like...

She's a real space slipper in an

Atomic graveyard she's got

Personal radar she is

Face to face electronically with

Me. I'm a living specimen

A single wing of a broken bird cries

Love

We're safe here in the past

Don't say another thing

I can't just pretend

The memory has left me

Your cold hand warm against my skin

A misinterpretation of tears

A freaky kind of nature

The world's gone mad - and I have
