Savage Garden

Gunning down romance

Love and other moments are just
chemical reactions in your
brain
in your brain
And feelings of aggression are the
absence of the love drug in your
viens
in your veins
Love come quickly
'Cause I feel my self esteem is caving in

It's on the brink
Love come quickly
'Cause I don't think I can keep this monster in
It's in my skin

Love and other socially
acceptable emotions are
morphine
They're morphine
Cleverly concealing primal
urges often felt but rarely
seen
Rarely seen
Love I beg you
Lift me up into that privileged point of view
The world of two
Love don't leave me
'Cause I console myself that
Hallmark cards** are true
I really do

I'm gunning down romance
It never did a thing for me
But heartache and misery
Ain't nothing but a tragedy

I'm gunning down romance
It never did a thing for me
But heartache and misery
Ain't nothing but a tragedy

Love don't leave me

Take these broken wings
I'm going to take these broken wings
And learn to fly
And learn to fly away
And learn to fly away

I'm gunning down romance
