Love of My Life Lyrics

[Intro]

[Verse 1]
Love of my life, you’ve hurt me
You’ve broken my heart
And now you leave me

[Chorus]
Love of my life, can’t you see?
Bring it back, bring it back
Don’t take it away from me
Because you don’t know
What it means to me

[Verse 2]
Love of my life, don’t leave me
You’ve taken my love (all my love)
And now desert me

[Chorus]
Love of my life, can’t you see?
(Please bring it back, back) Bring it back
Bring it back, don’t take it away from me
Because you don’t know what it means to me

[Bridge]
You will remember when this is blown over
And everything’s all by the way
When I grow older
I will be there at your side
To remind you how
I still love you (I still love you)

[Instrumental break]

[Chorus]
Back, hurry back
Please bring it back home to me
Because you don’t know
What it means to me

[Outro]
Love of my life
Love of my life
Ooh, ooh
