Love Comes In Spurts Live at CBGB, November 19, 1976 Songtext
von Richard Hell & the Voidoids

One, two, three, four

I was a child
Who wanted love that was wild
Though tight as slow motion
But crazed with devotion

Insane with devotion
A whole other notion
I was fourteen and a half
And it wasn′t no laugh

(Love comes in spurts), sometimes it hurts
(Love comes in spurts), sometimes it hurts
(Love comes in spurts), oh no, 'cause
(Love comes in spurts), oh no

I just can′t get wise
To those tragical lies
Though I now know the facts
They still cut like an axe


'Cause love comes in spurts
In dangerous flirts
And it murders your heart
They didn't tell you that part

(Love comes in spurts), sometimes it hurts
(Love comes in spurts), oh no
(Love comes in spurts), oh no ′cause
(Love comes in spurts), oh no ′cause

I just can't get wise
To those tragical lies
Though I now know the facts
They still cut like an axe

′Cause love comes in spurts
In dangerous flirts
And it murders your heart
They didn't tell you that part

(Love comes in spurts), sometimes it hurts
(Love comes in spurts), oh no ′cause
(Love comes in spurts), oh no because
(Love comes in spurts), sometimes it hurts


(Love comes in spurts), sometimes it hurts
(Love comes in spurts), oh no
(Love comes in spurts)
(Love comes in spurts), oh no 'cause

Thank you
We′ll be back after this (?)
Thank you
