It's that even though it fills the cracks and crevices
And mends the tattered soul
Still we're each the others nemesis and
Two halves do not always make a whole

And though you know I've often heard it said
We're made of sterner stuff

Love is not enough
Love is not enough

And all the things I left unsaid assuming that you knew
As if there were no question but that you could read my mind
And all the times I shut you out and
Left you hangin', me deaf, dumb and blind

And though I know we vowed to stick it out
Through the easy and the rough

Love is not enough
Love is not enough

All the stupid games we played to save our punished pride
As if it really mattered which of us was wrong or right
And even as we stood and watched it fall apart
I loved you with all my might

And though the heroes in the paperbacks always wind up in the buff

Love is not enough
Love is not enough
