Sometimes Love Just Ain't Enough
As originally performed by Patty Smyth and Don Henley

Now I don't want to lose you, but I don't want to use you,
Just to have somebody by my side.
And I don't want to hate you, and I don't want to take you
But I don't want to be the one to cry.
And it don't really matter to anyone any more
But like a fool I keep losing my place
And I keep seein' you walk through that door.
There's a danger in loving somebody too much,
And it's sad when you know it's your heart you can't trust
There's a reason why people don't stay where they are
Baby sometimes love just ain't enough.
Now I could never change you, and I don't want to blame you
Baby you don't have to take the fall.
Yes I may have hurt you, but I did not desert you
Maybe I just want to have it all.
It makes us sound like thunder, it makes me feel like rain
Like a fool who'll never see the truth
I keep thinkin' somethings gonna change.
There's a danger in loving somebody too much,
And it's sad when you know it's your heart you can't trust
There's a reason why people don't stay where they are
Baby sometimes love just ain't enough.
And there's no way home
When it's late at night and you're all alone
Are there things that you wanted to say?
And do you feel me beside you in your bed
There beside you where I used to lay.
There's a danger in loving somebody too much,
And it's sad when you know it's your heart you can't trust
There's a reason why people don't stay where they are
Baby sometimes love just ain't enough.
