Lyrics: Stephen Duffy. Lovers Beware.

If it's only love why do I want to die
Is it just to posses, try to caress if I survive
I sit by the phone, I check my machine at a quarter to nine
Now it's 8:46, I'm of the rails, end of the line

If it's only love, if it's only love
If it's only love, send those what I want to be your

Lover, lover beware
(What if this is only love)
Lover, lover beware
(What if this is only love)

She's too good for me, I'm too down at heel, to her I'm a fool
With the monogram fags, elegant drags in this sweet school
I was born to build cars, hang out at bars, play folk guitar
She was born yesterday, I feel like going away, I've gotta make her stay

If it's only love, if it's only love
If it's only love, I've seen those what I want to be her

Lover, lover beware
(What if this is only love)
Lover, lover beware
(What if this is only love)

Do you think that I'm the one but you don't want to till he's gone
Then you want him back by noon
You know that I'll bomb without you, I can't breath when I'm without you
What if your my one and only

Lover, lover beware
(What if this is only love)
Lover, lover beware
(What if this is only love)

Lover, lover beware
(What if this is only love)
Lover, lover beware
(What if this is only love, only love)
(What if this is only love, what if this is only love)
