Love is Far From Painless
by Ronin
Through a fever haze I see,
visions of the one for me,
is it to be or not to be
sight fades to black and I can see...
That love is far from painless,
hurt comes from the exchanges,
and yet my heart elects to stay with thee.
I wanted you to be my fate
to find happiness on our date
but the Devil did lie in wait
and now I think that's it too late...
And love is far from painless,
hurt comes from the exchanges,
and yet my heart elects to stay with thee.
The game of love is hard to play
feels like I've lost it anyway.
My feelings are in disarray
so this is all I have to say...
That love is far from painless,
hurt comes from the exchanges,
and yet my heart elects to stay with thee.
And now crushed beneath defeat
my thoughts withdraw in retreat
without you I'm incomplete
And I find I must repeat
That love is far from painless,
hurt comes from the exchanges,
and yet my heart elects to stay with thee.
A smile and kiss is all it takes
for you to go and up the stakes
But when you admit to your mistakes,
The pain grows stronger...my heart shakes...
For love is far from painless,
hurt comes from the exchanges,
and yet my heart elects to stay with thee.
In a dream, Satan asked of me,
Why I risk my soul to stand by thee,
He'd spare my life if I did flee,
and I replied, 'But she needs me'
And love is far from painless
hurt comes from the exchanges,
and yet my heart elects to stay with thee.
...and you can choose the same thing if you please.
