Love Is Here Where I Live

By Everything But The Girl (1988)
On album Idlewild (1988)

Idlewild
My three guardian angles say
Each time you smile that way
Danger lies that way
No-one will believe me

For that sort of thing's beneath me
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
That's not the way love is
Love is here where I live
Love is here where I live

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

But that's not the way love is
Love is here where I live
Love is here where I live

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
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

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
