The Blades - Rules of Love Lyrics

Too many rights and wrongs

That just can't be explained away

So full of bitterness

This empty feeling is here to stay

Your life comes tumbling down

And you wait for the phone to ring

Don't be so miserable

Self-pity won't change a thing

Rule one, don't walk with someone new

Rule two, don't ever disagree

Rule three, don't let the other person know how much you need them

These are the rules of love

They're broken and abused

These are the rules of love

Though I remain confused

These are the rules of love

Don't break the rules of...

You should have been prepared

You should have known it could never last

No turning back the clock

There's no time to retrace the past

Rule one, don't walk with someone new

Rule two, don't ever disagree

Rule three, don't let the other person know how much you need them

These are the rules of love

They're broken and abused

These are the rules of love

Though I remain confused

These are the rules of love

Don't break the rules of love

Rules of love x2

Don't break the rules of love
