The Truth About Love

Remember when time was on our hands?
Remember our funny little plans
Involving you and me?
Well, that's what I miss the most
Yeah, you and me
And not even some secondhand holy ghost

In time, I'm gonna change your mind
And if I disappointed you or treated you unkind, that's fine
I'm here to change your mind about love

It does not come down from above
Forget a woman or a man
It comes out of a can
Of poison in the water
And you're drinking all the time
And it's screwing with your mind
Just look into my eyes and you'll be fine

Well, what was I just saying then?
You weren't even paying attention
Am I wasting my breath here?
Or do you subscribe to my ideas about love?

It does not come down from above
Forget a woman or a man
And try and understand
That love is like poison
It goes straight into your heart
And that's when all the blackouts start
Love is like poison
