Love Comes In Spurts

(VerlaineHell)
I stood and stared at her face and nothin seemed to come
And then she smiled and that look just licked me like a tongue
Because love comes in spurts for sure
Though sometimes it hurts far more
You just get love in spurts
I held her waist and her wrist and I kissed her in the hair
Forgotten love started pumpin like a fountain inside there
Because love comes in spurts for sure
Though sometimes it hurts far more
You just get love in spurts
Oh darlin love'll come pump in your soul two feet deep
Two minutes later alligators'll chew you in your sleep
Because love comes in spurts for sure
Though sometimes it hurts far more
You just get love in spurts
Oh my honey wipe the tears that streak down your cheek
And don't you think I don't care, you only do 'cos you feel weak
Because love comes in spurts for sure
Though sometimes it hurts far more
You just get love in spurts, in spurts, in spurts, in spurts...
