When Love Comes Close

She put a spell on him

She had his heart in her hand

And when she squeezed a litte bit too hard

She tore the boy to pieces

Looked into the mirror I was hypnotized

There was a different man

Staring back into my eyes

Went to the doctor but he could not see

Only the love of a woman would be medicine for me

I went for miles in the pouring rain

Losing her wasn't part of the game

So I took the time to look around and see

Cause there had to be a future that was meant for me

Love can take you to the sky

Love may leave you in a haze to die

And you will always know it's true

When love comes close to you

I gave away everything I had

Spent all my money, I got thirsty and mad

No life for losers when the winner steals the price

In the heartbeat of the city

I was forced to roll the dice

Love may blind you with its cry

Love can haunt you 'til the day you die

Be yourself and don't pretend

Broken hearts can always mend

Love can take you to the sky

Love may leave you in a haze to die

You will always know it's true

When love comes close to you
