Way of Life

No stage for drama
No issues to be solved
No chance for heartache
There was alcohol involved
Late office party
Hastily-locked door
Something they can laugh about
At work when they get bored

She's thinking, I'll drop this
Quick as I picked it up
He's only got one thought
Beyond his coffee cup
Just hit it and quit it
Fire at close range
She takes off her glasses
To the sound of crashing change
And the choir sang:

(Love, love)
Love is a way of life, my love
(Love, love)
Love is a way of life

Next morning, curse the clouds
Jump back into bed
Grin to the colleage
For too much needs to be said
Wait for the rain
Turn the bathroom heater on
Check the can for coffee
After breakfast, he'll be gone

(Love, love)
Love is a way of life, my love
(Love, love)
Love is a way of life

She lost the battle with her curiosity
Nowadays, he just talks about the company
Good love should be just like a weekend getaway
But you gotta go home somewhere to someone someday
Let the choir say:

(Love, love)
Love is a way of life, my love
(Love, love)
Love is a way of life

In the twenty-four-hour chess tournament donut restaurant
Where the lonely men go killing time to forget what they want
Every move is questioned
Considered and well-played
If you're only here for fun, son
You'll be punked in right away

They don't play for money
Bragging rights or fame
They don't care 'bout your quirks
And they could do without your name
All the kings and pawns and queens
Of plastic, wood and steel
Pretend it's just a game
It's too sad to be real

(Love, love)
Love is a way of life, my love
(Love, love)
Love is a way of life

(Love, love)
Love is a way of life, my love
(Love, love)
Love is a way of life

Is a way of life, my love...
