Jeffrey Gaines - Dark Love Song / from the Album Jeffrey Gaines текст песни

Long long time ago my mother told me

As far as she knows lovin' was only

For those who love themselves

And it ain't for no one else

And you've got to hold inside

A certain amount of pride

Long long way from home

Seems I've forgotten

All that I was told

And the heartache is starting

'Cause those who love themselves

Aren't enslaved to no one else

And they don't have to compromise

And they don't have to cover their eyes

Seems I'm trapped I can't break free

Without you who would I be

And I've rendered myself powerless

Is my need my cowardice

She's got bruises but she wears them for love

He's got disease but he bears it for love

Don't know what cupid was thinking of

So many of us just slaves for love

Long long chain of fools

And I'm in there somewhere

'Cause love ain't got no rules

But somehow I still care

For those who love themselves

Even more than I love myself

And though you bring me pain and sorrow

I'll still be here tomorrow

Seems I'm trapped I can't break free

Without you who would I be

I've rendered myself powerless

Is my need my cowardice

She's got bruises but she'll wear them for love

He's got a new disease but he'll bear it for love

Don't know what cupid was thinking of

So many of us just slaves for love

Fools for love
