Over and over scenes are replayed
And once again those promises made
Lonely survivors these promises made
And once again those promises made
Secrets of souls that rarely get spoken
Nobody seems to show you enough
That distance may yet explain
Over and over scenes are replayed
Certain of nothing you're so damn fearful of love
Shielding our hearts from pain
How did this ever happen to you?
Riddles of romance
Dozens of ways and dozens of reasons
Taken for granted, bruised and betrayed
Feeling forsaken, broken in two
Shielding our hearts from pain
Nobody seems to show you enough
Riddles of romance
Pleasure's a thin disguise
Certain of nothing, so fearful of love
That distance may yet explain
Dozens of ways and dozens of reasons
