Lyrics Harry Connick, Jr.

Harry Connick, Jr.

Such Love

What used to be a halo

Held above your head

Has now become a noose

Hanging there instead

What used to be a love bird

Glorious at least

Has now become a buzzard

Waiting for the feast

Such love

Such love

Too bad I never had such love

Such love

Such love

I’m glad I never had such love

Once infatuation

Meant a brand new start

Now it’s just a crush

Extinguishing your heart

What used to be a fire

You needed to survive

Has now become a fever

Burning you alive

Such love

Such love

There’s such a thing as too much love

Such love

Such love

Funny how hate can bring such love

From my precious point of view

It all seemed so unclear

Why someone would want to do

Something wrong to someone dear

I’ve got quite the advantage now

A fare more lucid view

I can see so easily how

One like me could get to you

What used to be a heated

Passionate embrace

Has now become a claustrophobic

Strangling disgrace

What used to be an arrow

Show with cupid’s crest

Has now become a bullet

Ripping through your chest

Such love

Such love

From now on I’ll never touch love

Such love

Such love

Better off living without love

What used to be lust

Rumbling in your soul

Has become a lesson

In utter self-control

What used to be a promise

Held with every breath

Has now become a sentence

Condemning you to death
