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 I've been facing this alone for much too long      I 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 wrong      Too 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 time      I'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   All I ever do is bring you down      How would it be if you were standing in my shoes   Can't you see that it's impossible to choose   There's no making sense of it   Every way I go I have to lose      Too 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 time      Yeah   Too much love will kill you   It'll make your life a lie   Yes, too much love will kill you   And you won't 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
