Love I Can’t Defend

[Verse 1]
I'm closing in, I'm feeling fine
You've lit the candles, poured the wine
I've dreamed up great scenarios, won't come down
With my face pressed up to the glass
Your house inviting; night time jazz
And I arrive in this masterpiece, this pumpkin

[Pre-Chorus]
And despite this romantic range of violins
Detoxication tends to be unkind
And if these laws of love do not appeal to you
I'll try and convince myself these rules are just applied

[Chorus]
And this is love I can't defend
This is primitive love, the dangerous kind
And this is love that will bring me to my knees
This is the love that I have for you

[Verse 2]
My birthday comes, I am reduced
Your moods leave me a bit confused
I'm rearranging all my expectations
How you define consistency, well it's clearly not up to me
To break into your rhythm or its absence

[Pre-Chorus]
But despite this romantic range of violins
Detoxication tends to be unkind
And if these laws of love do not appeal to you
I'll try and convince myself these rules are just applied

[Chorus]
And this is love I can't defend
This is primitive love, the dangerous kind
And this is love that will bring me to my knees
This is the love that I have

And this is love I can't defend
This is primitive love, the dangerous kind
And this is love that will bring me to my knees
This is the love that I have for you
