Love Will Tear Us Apart
Paul Young
No Parlez (1983)

When routine bites hard and ambitions are low

And resentment rides high
but emotions won't grow

And we're changing our ways taking different roads.
And love
love will tear us apart again.
And love
love will tear us apart again.
Why is the bedroom so cold
turn away on your side.
Is my timing at fault and respect run so dry

Yet there's still this appeal
that we've kept through all our lives.
And love
love will tear us apart again. . ..
Resentment rides high
but emotions won't grow

And we're changing our ways taking different roads.
Do you cry out in your sleep
all my failings exposed?
And there's a taste in my mouth as desperation takes hold

Yet it's something so pure
Ijust can't function no more.

And love
love will tear us apart again. . . .
And love
love will tear us apart again. . . .
And love
love will tear us apart again. . . .
Respect runs so dry

Yet there's still this appeal
that we've kept through our lives.
