A Brief History of Love Songtext
von The Big Pink

This time I′ll leave you as the one that you love
The taste of your lips and the true meaning of love
Your beautiful smile all bent out of shape
Is this the road to heaven that you wanted to take?

Come on baby don't you want to feel love?
Have I left you too long waiting for the feeling to come?
Another kind of lover holds my baby today
Crush the tissue to break the fall

Let′s get lost and feel warm tonight
Hit by another and feeling it's right
It's all over tonight
It′s all over tonight
It′s all over tonight

As you leave me
It's up to you to lend me your heart, but you won′t let go
And as you leave me
You're in my heart I feel true love and it won′t let go
It's up to you to mend my heart, please don′t let go


I've seen the lights of this city go out at night
Instant living rarely works out right
You never turned down what you wanted to be
It's a kind of magic that you can′t help but feel

I dreamt we were sleeping and we floated away
And we shone like a star and we blinded who stared
We listen to the heavens at the silence above
Never ask the devil to help the one that you love

You said to me baby that you want to feel love
Babe we gave it our all but it′s never enough
It's all over tonight
It′s all over tonight
It's all over tonight

As you leave me
It′s up to you to lend me your heart, but you won't let it go
And as you leave me
You′re in my heart I feel true love and it won't let go
It's up to you to mend my heart, please don′t let go

It′s over
It's over
It′s over
Baby tonight
Baby tonight
