"The Things We Do For Love": Based on the 10cc song

 


Too many broken hearts have fallen in the river. 

Too many lonely souls have drifted out to sea. 

You lay your bets and then you pay the price -- the things we do for love.



Communication is the problem, not the answer. 

You've got his number and your hand is on the phone. 

The weather's turned, and all the lines are down -- the things we do for love.


Like walking in the rain and the snow, when there's nowhere to go.

And you're feeling like a part of you is dying.  

And you're looking for the answer in his eyes. 



You think you're going to break up, then he says he wants to make up.










A compromise would surely help the situation.

Agree to disagree. but disagree to part.  

When after all it's just a compromise of the things we do for love.





More after the break



Like walking in the rain and the snow, when there's nowhere to go

And you're feeling like a part of you is dying. 

And you're looking for the answer in his eyes. 






You think you're going to break up, and then he says he wants to make up.





You made me love you -- you've got a way.  

But you got me crawling up a wall -- the things we do for love.

10cc, "The Things We Do For Love" (1976)
