Broken End Of Love Lyrics - Singles - Robert Earl Keen

Line of sight, speed of sound 

Feel of flesh the long way down 

Flash of light you look around it's over 

You're OK, but I'm a mess 

It's the way it goes I guess 

I think I thought we would last forever 

What am I gonna do about this 

It ain't no metamorphosis 

It's the cold and bitter broken end of love 

Discontent with love's refrain 

Is something that I can't explain 

I see now I should have seen it coming 

It hit us like a hurricane 

And ripped the coast with fiery rain 

And I kept holding on in vain to nothing 

What am I gonna do about this 

It ain't no metamorphosis 

It's the cold and bitter broken end of love 

And I wonder if you felt this way 

From our first kiss to that last day 

And I was but a fool of trust and pleasure 

And I'll keep your love where love won't die 

So said the spider to the fly 

But dead love is the only love you treasure 

What am I gonna do about this 

It ain't no metamorphosis 

It's the cold and bitter broken end of love 

I'm lucky just to be alive 

It serves me right that I survive 

And live to tell the lesson that you taught me 

So you know for what it's worth 

There ain't enough love on earth 

To take away all the shame you brought me 

What am I gonna do about this 

It ain't no metamorphosis 

It's the cold and bitter broken end of love (Hey now) 

What am I gonna do about this 

It ain't no metamorphosis 

It's the cold and bitter broken end of love 

End of love
