Lyrics

[00:07.39] You’ll know when romance is dead
[00:11.14] Your make up in a toolbox somewhere in the shed
[00:15.20] His face is unshaven, the grass overgrown
[00:19.01] From the shed to the bed is a web you call home
[00:23.83] You’ll know when romance is dead
[00:30.08] That deathly cold blast from his side of the bed
[00:34.33] Your dreams frozen over, your nightmares on ice
[00:38.39] From the bedroom to the bathroom you say everything twice
[00:42.76] (Everything twice)
[00:47.33] And you’ll know when romance is dead
[00:51.64] You’ll burst into tears at each record that’s played
[00:55.64] He sits in the sun, you sulk in the shade
[00:59.52] You’ll know when love starts to fade
[01:05.83] You’ll know when romance is dead
[01:09.27] From the brambles and thorns growing out of your head
[01:13.59] Whenever you touch her she tuts or she sighs
[01:17.64] One kiss goodnight and she’s rolling her eyes
[01:21.59]
[01:26.29] And you’ll know when love starts to fade
[01:30.10] That balancing act is no longer made
[01:34.16] Like penny stacked high in amusement arcade
[01:37.91] It’s not what youworth it’’re s the way that you’re laid
[01:41.10] Yes you’ll know when love starts to fade
[01:47.29] Like you knew when romance was alive
[01:50.79] Each couple you passed they’d smile and high five
[01:54.91] Like you’ll know when love’s back on track
[01:58.29] Uncontrollable laugh at each joke that you crack
[02:01.98] Giggle and cackle and throw her head back
[02:05.85] Her mouth is still smiling, her veins turning black
[02:09.22] Her head is elastic but her neck is all slack
[02:13.16]
[02:16.99] You’ll know when love’s on the rocks
[02:20.18] You wearing headphones, him vest and socks
[02:24.24] You’ll know when love’s on the slide
[02:27.74] Whenever you’re talking, the kids go outside
[02:31.74]
[02:36.44] You’ll know when romance is dead
[02:39.63] When the look that you get is as hard as the bread
[02:43.63] You open your mouth but your stories are stale
[02:47.38] From front door to back door it’s blowing a gale
[02:51.13] You’ll know when love starts to fade
