You knew the secret of the universe
They stayed blue, baby blue
You stole the sun straight from my heart
I could have made you feel alive
Despite it all you made it worse
Your love alone is not enough
I could have placed us in exile
From my heart, from my heart
Love you most, love you most
Man can be, man can be
No, you won't make a mess of me
Your love alone
Trade all your heroes in for ghosts
Your love alone is not enough
They're always the ones that love you most
I could have seen for miles and miles
Fall on you, fall on you
Your love alone is not enough
I could have shown you how to cry
It left you lonely, it left you cursed
With no excuses just fell apart
It's what you felt, it's what you said
I could have shown you
They get tough, they get tough
Fell apart, fell apart
I could have written all your lines
Not enough, not enough
Your love alone is not enough
When times get tough, they get tough
For you're as blind as a man can be
In for ghosts, in for ghosts
But your love alone won't save the world
What you said, what you said
You said the sky would fall on you
Through all the pain your eyes stayed blue
I showed you how to cry
Mess of me, mess of me
