Lyrics Bonnie Tyler

Bonnie Tyler

Love Is the Knife

You had a beauty, undeniable

Brought my defenses to the ground

I had a feeling, indescribable

Made me question all my doubt

We had a passion, unbreakable

Two hearts have never been so close

Now the scars are unmistakable

Just when I needed you the most

Love is the knife you used to cut me

Twisted inside and sharpened by the lies

Gone are the nights you used to touch me

Soft on my skin, I'll never hurt that good again

Only one heart survives, when love is the knife

The way it ended was unthinkable

A better man just would have stayed

Words on your lips, unbelievable

Throwing my heart down on your blade

Love is the knife you used to cut me

Twisted inside and sharpened by the lies

Gone are the nights you used to touch me

Soft on my skin, I'll never hurt that good again

Only one heart survives, when love is the knife
