You Can't Live on Love Alone (demo) - Justin Currie

Somebody ought to let you know
You don’t die when lovers go
If you’re gonna fix that broken heart
Forgettin’ me might be a start

So drink and cuss and cry
Throw the telephone
But take a breath
Cause you can’t live on love alone

That blue bottle buzzin round your room
Mad as hell, will be quiet soon
Draw back the drapes and look outside
Seasons turn but we stay alive

So I left you for dead
And must atone
Well, don’t hold your breath
Cause you can’t live on love alone

So fall apart, togetherness was never your aim
Guess you’ve preferred the part of martyr to my deserter
Don’t ever admit you’re so much tougher than you claim

So, somebody ought to let you know
You won’t die from a wounded soul
And tell everyone how bad I am
Go ahead, they know it’s a sham
And you swear since I left, you have turned to stone

Well, save your breath,
Cause you can’t live on love alone

Such a pretty death
But you can’t live on love alone
