If I have one, I might as well have two
If I have two, I might as well have ten
Now, I don't need to count the rest
I think we both know how the story ends
I'm on your front porch, I need a place to sleep
Oh, love's gonna be the death of me
The death of me
Love's gonna be the death of me
The death of me, yeah

I tried hard to play my cards just right
Beginner's luck usually gets me through the night
But after one kiss it hits the fan
A flush of bleeding hearts in my hand
I grab a band-aid, but what's the rush?
Oh, love's gonna be the death of us
The death of us
Love's gonna be the death of us
The death of us

Here we rest eternal, here we rest in peace, we
Say a little prayer for the love deceased, we
Bury our desire, burning all the lust, till it's
Ash to ashes, dust to dust

Now you will never speak to me again
It's all my fault and I cannot pretend
There was a sign post I did not see
Drivin' the wrong way down a one way street
And now the car's wrapped around a bus
Oh, love's gonna be the death of us
The death of us

Oh, ooh, loves gonna be
The death of us

Ooh, ooh, loves gonna be
The death of us

Ooh, ooh, loves gonna be
The death of us

The death of us
