[Verse 1]
My three guardian angels say
Each time you smile that way
Dangers lies that way
No one will believe me
For that sort of thing's beneath me

[Verse 2]
But I keep repeating three words
It won't last, it won't last
I've been here before, it will pass
Don't say I'm mercenary
That's unnecessary

[Chorus]
That's not the way love is
Love is here where I live
Love is here where I live

[Verse 3]
Desire is a child that clings
And I know the trouble it brings
I remind myself each minute
My home is here and my love is in it

[Chorus]
But that's not the way love is
Love is here where I live
Love is here where I live
[Verse 4]
So I keep repeating three words
It won't last, it won't last
I've been here before, it does pass
Reason is unkind
But still I'll know next time

[Chorus]
That's not the way love is
Love is here where I live
Love is here where I live
That's not the way love is
Love is here where I live
Love is here where I live

[Outro]
That's not the way love is
Love is here where I live
That's not the way love is
Love is here where I live
That's not the way love is
Love is here where I live
