Of all the people in this world   Why you and I   With lovers here and everywhere   We don't care enough to try      Why couldn't, all the hurt we're feeling now   Have passed us by   Couldn't love have picked a better place to die?      And of all the hearts in all the world   Why yours and mine   There's so many places love could die   We must leave the earth for a time      Oh, but it's in our hearts and it's in our bed   And it's even in your eyes   Couldn't love have picked a better place to die?      Somewhere out there   There's lovers who want to be free   Why couldn't love have died with them   Instead of here with you and me      Oh, but it's pitiful how all these tears   Won't bring it back to life   Couldn't love have picked a better place to die?      Oh, but it's pitiful how all these tears   Won't bring it back to life   Oh, couldn't love have picked a better place to die?
