Lyrics
V1
How do you tell the one you love
That she's better off alone
How do you tell her that ring she wears
Is going to bind her to hell.
(chorus)
Is this just a case of paranoia
Or a cold hard truth of love.
That to be with the one you care so much for
Means to take her life away
V2
How do you tell her those things you said
Were promises you couldn't keep
Like we will always be together
And I will never do you harm
(chorus)
Is this just a case of paranoia
Or a cold hard truth of love.
That to be with the one you care so much for
Means to take her life away
(bridge)
Oh god I beg you
To make her happy
(chorus)
Is this just a case of paranoia
Or a cold hard truth of love.
That to be with the one you care so much for
Means to take her life away
V3
How do you tell the one you love
That she's better off alone.
