Only Love - Justin Currie

Only love makes killing time so cruel

The hours come and you drag them round with you

When she is gone the whole hang dark house aches

And you hum along to the sound of heartbreaks

You think you hear in every song

But only love will make you wait so long

For the little gifts that keep you holding on

A scribbled ring around the town she’s staying in

The little dent in the bed you’re laying in

The heady scent she leaves on you

But only love makes killing time so cruel

So many things that you must get round to

A dripping tap, a month’s mail to sort through

If you could just get your mind to clear

But it’s only love, and it keeps you waiting here
