Too Much Love Will Kill You
I’m just the pieces of the man I used to be
Too many bitter tears are raining down on me
I’m far away from home
And Ive been facing this alone
For much too longI feel like no-one ever told the truth to me
About growing up and what a struggle it would be
In my tangled state of mind
I’ve been looking back to find
Where I went wrongToo much love will kill you
If you can’t make up your mind
Torn between the lover
And the love you leave behind
You’re headed for disaster
Cos’ you never read the signs
Too much love will kill you
Every timeI’m just the shadow of the man I used to be
And it seems like there’s no way out of this for me
I used to bring you sunshine
Now all I ever do is bring you down
How would it be if you were standing in my shoes
Cant you see that it’s impossible to choose
No there’s no making sense of it
Every way I go I’m bound to loseToo much love will kill you
Just as sure as none at all
It’ll drain the power that’s in you
Make you plead and scream and crawl
And the pain will make you crazy
You’re the victim of your crime
Too much love will kill you
Every timeToo much love will kill you
It’ll make your life a lie
Yes, too much love will kill you
And you wont understand why
You’d give your life, you’d sell your soul
But here it comes again
Too much love will kill you
In the end…
In the end.
Salah satu lagu abadi bagi saya, tentu saja selain In The Arms of The Angel-nya Sarah MacLachlan.
Banyak versi yang sudah saya dengar, tetapi saya lebih menyukai versi yang dinyanyikan oleh Brian May, gitaris Queen, dengan permainan pianonya, khususnya ketika dia tampil di The Freddie Mercury Tribute Concert for AIDS Awareness, April 1992.
Lagu ini memberikan berjuta makna bagi saya. Mungkin juga bagi anda.
ps :
mp3-nya silakan dicari sendiri di internet. saya tidak ingin dituduh jadi penyebar mp3.
